You have access to the gateway to UNamur's Masters in Management Sciences!
The gateway to the master's degree in management science is a choice for the future, but also a prospect of change. By broadening your skills, you open up to other subjects, other tools and other methods for understanding and working in the reality of business. Your new skills will lead you, as managers, to make strategic decisions and provide innovative solutions to business problems. In management, a cross-functional vision is essential. In constant contact with the company's core business, you will need to master the methods and tools of different management disciplines such as corporate finance, market finance, marketing, innovation, strategy, leadership, consulting, process management... On the multilingual international scene, you will collaborate with teams from other countries and cultures to successfully complete projects in other languages. A socially responsible managerial approach will make you humane leaders, respectful of social, environmental and economic concerns.

Testimonials
As a student, I needed reassurance. The master's degree enabled me to exploit all my abilities in a more reassuring way. I'd even go so far as to say that the Master's has boosted my self-confidence! Thanks to my Erasmus (which I will never forget), I also developed a certain open-mindedness, both personally and professionally. Much more than a second degree and access to new professional prospects, this master's degree was a real opportunity for personal development for me!Daisy, graduate Following my bachelor's degree in accounting at Haute École, I chose to deepen and broaden my knowledge by following the passerelle at UNamur. This was part of my desire to obtain university status, which offers a wider range of professional and salary opportunities, and part of my curiosity to discover the world of scientific research. There are many differences between the two types of teaching. I particularly appreciated the intellectual stimulation and the challenge of the Master's thesis. Unlike my bachelor's thesis, the dissertation gave me the feeling of having carried out a problem in its entirety, from reflection to recommendations Valérie, graduate
In practice, a tailor-made itinerary
When you register for the Master of Management Sciences, you choose between the 60-credit master's program and the 120-credit master's program. Based on your degree and previous coursework, additional teaching units (UES) are added to your master's program for a total of 45 to 60 credits maximum.
The master 60 credits (1 year) is oriented towards the general and transdisciplinary aspects of business management. It allows you to select a single option and does not include internships or Erasmus stays.The master 120 credits (2 years) allows you to select 3 options in the fields of taxation and law, finance, services & marketing management and innovation and entrepreneurship. An Erasmus stay (with one of our international or Belgian partners) and the completion of an internship give your degree a unique character.

When UNamur told its story in postcards
The Moretus Plantin University Library (BUMP) at UNamur preserves a collection of several thousand postcards within its precious reserve. This remarkable collection offers an original insight into the daily life of the people of Namur in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Collaborative research on differentiation
A collaboration between UNamur - Hénallux - IFEC
Image

Image
Since September 2022, Hénallux and UNamur have been collaborating with IFEC (Institut de Formation de l'Enseignement Catholique) with the aim of raising awareness and training those involved in secondary education in educational differentiation, advocated in the Pacte pour un enseignement d'excellence. To achieve this, various modalities have been devised and implemented: in-school pedagogical days, follow-ups in schools that request them, courses for differentiation referent teachers, courses for CSAs (support and accompaniment advisors).The convention is coordinated by Sandrine Biémar (UNamur) and Alain Bultot (Hénallux), and the team of researchers includes Anne Libert (UNamur), Virginie Meyer (UNamur) and Sylvie Van der Linden (Hénallux).
Background
This collaborative research is part of a wider project devoted to differentiation, which brings together several courses with different aims and audiences. These include in-school pedagogical training, the training of teacher-referents whose vocation is to be facilitators of the development of differentiation practices in their schools, training for all IFEC CSAs, as well as regular meetings with IFEC in-house trainers interested in this theme. Collaborative research is part of this continuity, with each path nourishing the others. It aims to anchor reflection on differentiation in classroom practices in a mutual enrichment of theory and practice.
In practice
School courses :
pedagogical training and follow-up courses lasting from 1 to several days.
CSA course :
4-day training for all CSAs and IFEC.
Referent courses :
Training of pairs of school referents for 4 days + 1 day.
Trainers' courses :
community of practice with IFEC internal differentiation trainers
Collaborative research path :
accompanying teachers over a school year in implementing differentiation practices.
The objectives
Fostering teachers' power to act by mobilizing and interpreting objective data gathered in the field.Collaborative research is built on negotiation between participants and researchers. Each stage of the research is therefore constructed together, in order to respond as closely as possible to the concerns and issues related to differentiation that are encountered in the specific contexts of each participant.For example, the research question and sub-questions are co-formulated to respond as closely as possible to the concerns and issues in the field regarding the impact of a differentiated teaching posture on student motivation and autonomy..
Methodology
This research is inspired by the protocol developed by Schildkamp (2018, 2019) within "Data TEAMS". It aims to develop and foster teachers' power to act through decision-making based on data collection and evaluation of school practices.The data resulting from this research pathway will feed the referent and trainer pathways. In addition, data and productions resulting from this collaborative research will also be destined for colleagues and organizations from the various stakeholders (schools, CSA).
Want to get involved?
We are looking for pairs of teachers from the same school, which will facilitate the implementation of the process within each school concerned.
The themeDevelop and regulate differentiation practices in light of classroom data.The objectivesUnderstand and actUnderstand, through analysis of available classroom data and exchanges of practice between professionals, the effects of a differentiated teacher posture on student motivation and autonomy.Objectivate one's intuition to act effectively.Terms and conditions7 meetings over the course of the year at the Salle des Pros (Rue Godefroid, 7 - in the center of Namur)Why participate?To enrich research by drawing on practices in the field.To enrich your practices thanks to the support of the researcher-trainers.To meet other teachers who share your concerns.
