Course Content

The Breton and Celtic Master’s Degree takes a progressive approach to the development of research skills over the four semesters, the aim of which is proficiency in the scientific methodology that early-career researchers need.

Year 1 offers 38 hours of tutorials (TDs) (core syllabus): research (14 hours) and development of the professional project (24 hours). In addition to this primary training, there are 48 hours of language teaching and 120 hours of fundamental modules.

In year 2, there are 120 hours of fundamental modules (language is optional), which support further research and allow students to master the theoretical and technical tools essential to any research project.

This is distance learning provided by SUP, the university’s occupational teaching development department. It is accessible to students meeting certain criteria (see the Admission Requirements section for further details).
