Graduate Diploma in Information & Communication Studies

This one year graduate degree program in information and communication (3rd year Bachelor's degree program) at EJCAM is attached to the Bachelor's degree in Public Administration (Aix-Marseille University). It is a one year generalist program that prepares students either for entry into the workforce, or for further study in a Master's program (in particular the "Information-Communication" Master's program at EJCAM), or for the preparation of certain competitive examinations requiring a Bachelor's degree. The training aims to offer a plurality of fundamental teachings in the field of information, communication, media and new media. The program is diversified in the sense that it articulates, on these fundamental courses, the learning of professional know-how. The courses take place on the Aix-en-Provence's branch of EJCAM. A compulsory six-week internship (minimum) takes place at the end of the program.

This generalist L3 course allows students to consolidate their general knowledge and to develop professional projects directly related to the worlds of information and journalism, media and communication. Open and curious minds, and versatile profiles, will be particularly welcome in this type of curriculum.

In addition to pursuing a Master's degree, this program also allows graduates to enter the workforce as assistants to communication managers or editorial managers. Graduates are thus able to assist management with communication projects, some or all of which are digital, to contribute to specifications depending on the complexity of the communication and/or editorial projects, and to carry out preparatory surveys, if necessary.
