Postgraduate Programs

The G-ENV team offers several training programmes at the Master of Science (MSc) and Specialised Master levels. The team also supervises doctoral students registered at AgroParisTech (ABIES and GAIA doctoral schools) and elsewhere, and organises or co-organises a series of doctoral modules. G-ENV also offers a number of modules open to short continuing education and two institutional certificates.
Educational guidelines
The pedagogical orientations are explicitly based on :
  • training through research, even for students with a non academic professional project,
  • a strong field orientation, mainly in the international arena (Africa, Latin America, Asia).
The curricula organized by the G-ENV team deal with environmental management:
  • through interdisciplinary approaches that combine environmental sciences skills with management science skills
  • within the management sciences through different aspects of the discipline: strategy and strategic management, international management, management systems and instruments, critical approaches to management and altermanagement, accounting, negotiation, evaluation of management systems and public policies, analysis of environmental management doctrines.
In addition to the courses, programs mobilise teaching methods that make extensive use of project approaches, including various interdisciplinary approaches to the environment (collective field diagnoses, role-playing), and management approaches (strategic cases, development of prospective scenarios).
