Overview

The aim of the International Development Studies program at University of Clermont Auvergne (UCA) is to prepare professionals in the field of international development. GLODEP (Global Development Policy) provides the students with comprehensive knowledge and skills to analyze development issues and to design and promote development policies at national, regional and international levels.

GLODEP links the areas of development studies and development economics, offering insights from economics and other fields, such as geography, environmental studies, and political science.

The program provides the students with an opportunity to obtain:

multi-disciplinary knowledge of development issues, grounded in development studies and development economics;
ability to analyze development problems and to design and promote development policies and projects for the specific context of a developing area or a sector;
ability to work in an international environment and in multi- and inter-disciplinary teams, and communicate to a non-expert audience.

Career

GLODEP (Global Development Policy) enables the graduates to work in higher-level positions (for example as government policy officers and project managers) in international organizations (e.g. UN agencies, World Trade Organization, development banks), non-governmental organizations (e.g. Oxfam and World Vision) and in governments (e.g. national development agencies and various ministries), as well as in businesses; with a focus on sustainable economic and human development. Reflecting the character of the program, the graduates will be suited to work in teams of people with diverse professional experience and from a range of disciplinary backgrounds.
