Focus on the Public Management field

The Public Management programs trains future professionals to effectively manage public sector projects in order to meet the needs of citizens.

In government agencies, public institutions, territories, and territorial structures, public management professions draw on innovative skills to support transformation and enhance the effectiveness of public action.

These professions actively contribute to the development of cities and regions through project management, the organization of public resources, and by promoting cooperation between local stakeholders. The goal is to improve public services, support the local economy, protect the environment, and encourage innovation, while adapting to regulatory changes.

At Montpellier Management, we train many public management professionals every year. Our specialized programs enable them to acquire the skills necessary to understand regional dynamics, lead development projects, and manage teams while contributing to service quality and participating in the modernization of public services. Our students can choose from several master’s degrees and specialize in areas such as seashore and marine space management, public territorial management, or university management.

Careers in this field

Students are qualified to hold positions of responsibility in the public sector and can pursue a variety of careers, such as general manager of a local authority or public institution, regional development manager, project or mission manager (HR, environment, coastal and port development, planning, coastal risk management), department head, engineer, or regional attaché.

They can also move into administrative, financial, or human resources management positions in public institutions, universities, and laboratories, or turn to research and higher education, European or international project management in embassies, cooperation agencies, and research organizations.
