Presentation of the training

This Master 2 Public Management, "Public Marketing and Communication" course aims to acquire the knowledge and skills required to become a specialist in the public sector and an expert in marketing and communication.

This Master's degree therefore aims to complete a course in law, economics and management with specific training in marketing and communication applied to the non-market sector. The courses should therefore enable students to acquire a management culture in the field of marketing and communication in non-market institutions, but also to deepen their knowledge of certain specific themes, sectoral problems or professional techniques.

  • Target audience

    Individuals who have validated a Master 1 in Law-Economy-Economy-Management, in particular the Master 1 Public Management and who wish to move towards public administrations (public administrative establishments, local authorities), non-market institutions such as associations, agencies, professional organisations, cultural structures, or more broadly, communication and public marketing consultancy agencies operating in this sector and whose clients are public administrations or non-market organisations.

  • Skills

    Graduates will have acquired six skills that will enable them to :

    • Design marketing research, collect and analyse qualitative and quantitative data,

    • Understand end-user behaviour and adapt communication to audiences,

    • Produce, disseminate and manage a public communication strategy with a focus on the creation of digital content,

    • Produce and manage a public marketing strategy with a focus on public brand management and sector specificities,

    • Managing innovative projects from the creation to the promotion of new service offers to address public policy issues 

    • To enter the labour market through the development of expertise in the framework of a professional thesis, and the building of a professional network.

  • Organization of the training

    Students will follow 458 hours of classroom teaching (S3: 210h / S4: 248h).

    The lecturers encourage learning with interactive and immersive teaching methods: lectures, case studies, role-playing, role-playing with real-life projects.

    The internship is compulsory. Open to apprenticeship, the Master's programme is organised on a sandwich basis with one week of classes per month, i.e. 14 weeks of training over the academic year. 

    Students benefit from support in building a professional network and carry out tutored group projects that meet the expectations of an external professional sponsor in a real situation.
