Course Details

Objectives : The Geopolitics-Geopolitics-Digital Geographic Information (Geoint) course of the GAED master's degree at Sorbonne University trains students in the field of spatial imagery, the fusion of geolocalized data and geopolitical analysis.

This course provides initial training to understand the geopolitical and geostrategic issues of the contemporary world, particularly in the Sahel, Middle East and West Asia regions. In addition to this regional approach, students learn analysis methods, geolocation tools, cartography and computer graphics.

The course is therefore intended to train future analysts specializing in the specific activity of Geoint (defined by the fusion of multi-source and geolocalized data) for the benefit of various ministries (Armed Forces, Interior, MAE) and private companies linked to Economic Intelligence and Geoint.

This training is provided by the UFR of Geography and Planning in conjunction with the UFR of History. It is organized within the Master Geography, Planning, Environment, Development (GAED) which forms the Major component. It is based on two courses from the Master Wars, Armies and Societies of the UFR of History which constitute the Minor component.

Degree Level (EU) : 7 - (EQC level or equivalent)

Prerequisites : This Master 2 training is aimed at students and executives seeking professional specialization in the Geoint professions. It offers a qualification in geopolitical analysis skills and mastery of digital geography tools that may concern:

- Executives of the Ministry of the Armed Forces
- Executives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Europe
- Executives of the Ministry of the Interior
