Master 1 EEET

M1 – ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENERGY ECONOMICS

The Master 1 Environment, Energy & Transport allows you to mobilize multiple knowledge and integrated approaches to cover all the areas on which the challenges of the energy, environment and food sectors are based. It prepares for entry to the five M2 EEET courses, which focus on the environment, modeling, energy, food and transport.

The aim of the training is to address all environmental, energy, agri-food and transport issues from an economic point of view.

The disciplinary fields taught in M1 include:

  • fundamental aspects of economics (microeconomics, macroeconomics);
  • statistical and operational research methods (econometrics, microeconometrics, time series, etc.);
  • the foundations of decision-making, including in uncertain environments;
  • introductions to environmental, energy, food and mobility economics (specialization areas in M2);
  • Computer science;
  • transversal options (writing techniques, debates and controversies);
  • extra-curricular activities (animation of the alumni association).

Candidates from a scientific or engineering background are offered reinforcement in economics while other candidates are offered reinforcement in statistics and mathematics (optimization) according to their needs.

Who can apply for the M1 course?

For entry into the Master 1 Environment, Energy & Transport, the profiles allowing you to integrate the specialization are:

  • a degree in economics (with advanced skills in microeconomics, mathematics, statistics); a degree in mathematics, or mathematics and computer science applied to social sciences or management;
  • or a bac + 3 level in science (physics, engineering, biology, etc.) with a good foundation in mathematics and statistics, the quantitative dimension being important in the teaching.

A motivation for environmental, energy or bio-economy issues is an important asset, candidates pre-selected on file are interviewed on their motivation and skills.

What skills are developed during the course?

  • Know how to use statistical and econometric tools to address a complex problem.
  • Master and know how to apply the concepts of economic theory to analyze the impacts of the energy and ecological transition.
  • Develop multi-criteria analysis methods in the development of strategic intervention choices.
  • Model and quantify an economic phenomenon (econometrics, operational research, simulation methods).
  • Understand the mechanisms and institutions at work in public policies and negotiation strategies.

What are the career prospects of the training?

The M1 is not intended to provide a direct career opportunity. Most students continue in one of the five M2 courses:
