Risk modeling and analysisThe risk modeling and analysis specialty is training in applied mathematics and applications of mathematics aimed at deepening the technical skills necessary for analysts operating in the logistics, finance, or business strategy sectors. Many holders of a Master's degree in finance, logistics, management sciences, business management have a level of mathematical skills limited to fundamental notions allowing the modeling of simple phenomena. Complex modeling is based on mathematical notions rarely taught outside of mathematics courses. We can cite for example chaotic dynamics, fractal modeling, non-frequentist probabilities. This specialty is therefore at the crossroads of mathematics, economics (micro and macro) and management, operational research and geography. Research topics focus on logistics, mathematical finance or business strategies. This specialization gives a central place to risk analysis. This is based on the collection and processing of statistical data, probability calculation, game theory, econometrics, stochastic dynamic optimization, and to a certain extent on geopolitics, international relations, climate change , natural and industrial risks. Finance is first presented based on the work of Benoit Mandelbrot and Robert King Merton. A good understanding of contemporary issues in financial markets (cryptocurrencies, machine learning, high-frequency trading algorithms, etc.) is also necessary. Professions targeted for this specialty Responsible for international purchasing; sales director; risk manager; Financial Analyst; operational logistics manager…

Economic, sustainable, local and international developmentThe Economic, Sustainable, Local and International Development specialty aims to participate in the training of future executives in transnational companies, or international business consultants, but also local and sustainable development consultants, employees of NGOs, associations in non-profit and cooperatives, or even executives in local authorities. Deregulated economic globalization in which specialization, the international division of labor and free competition reign (according to the paradigms of classical economists) is increasingly contested by both a green alter-globalization left and an identity-based right. In many countries, this protest leads to a return to protectionism, a desire to reduce social inequalities, a return to local cultures and production, to local markets. However, the small local producer always seeks to expand its market, particularly internationally. Far from political and ideological debates, the Economic, Sustainable, Local and International Environment specialty seeks to provide technical legal expertise (local government law, public economic law, international trade law, environmental law), economic (global economy, economics of sustainable development, economics of local development) and politics (international relations, regional planning, sustainable development policies). Climate change and the limited nature of natural resources require the search for a balance between economic performance on global markets and respect for the natural environment, territories and local cultures. Professions targeted for this specialty Public and institutional communications manager, local cultural and ecological association, local public administration project manager, transnational business development manager, international negotiator
