Title: Programmes in Mathematics


1
  • Programmes in Mathematics LMD system
  • Paris Dauphine University
  • Logroño, 25-27 October 2007
  • Universidad de la Rioja
  • Conferencia de decanos y directores de
    matemáticas

  • A brief background MASS degrees
  • In the early seventies, the mathematics
    department at Paris Dauphine launched a new
    programme combining mathematics and economics,
    on the same model as mathematics and physics
    which is more usual.
  • This combination created a surprise and some
    scepticism among the academics but then the idea
    had been admitted and adopted by other French
    universities.
  • These programmes were referred as MASS degrees
  • Mathématiques Appliquées aux Sciences Sociales
    (Applied Mathematics and Social Sciences)

  • The LMD reform
  • The old system of the first two years of
    undergraduate study (recognized by a DEUG
    diploma), plus one year for the Bachelors degree
    licence is being replaced by the new
    licence, described as L1, L2, L3
  • The one year course after the old licence called
    maîtrise, followed by the one year DEA or DESS
    have been replaced by a research master or a
    professional master, referred to as M1, M2.
  • Many degrees names have changed.

The LMD reform at Dauphine Since October
2005, at Dauphine all programmes have been
designed following the LMD scheme. Basicaly
this means semester based programmes, each
semester being validated for 30 ECTS.
6
  • The LMD reform at Dauphine
  • Furthermore in October 2005, the mathematics and
    computer science departments merged in a new
    department MIDO
  • Mathématiques, Informatique, Decision et
    Organisation
  • The programmes in mathematics and computer
    science remain quite distinct.

  • The students
  • At the end of the second year students have a
    choice to opt for Economics or Business, or
    leave Dauphine to enter Business schools mostly.
    These students represent about 20 to 25 of the
    second year population
  • But new students apply to enter at level L3,
    coming from other universities or preparatory
    classes (intensive classes for competitive
    entrance) to engineering schools, so the number
    of students stays stable (around 180-200).

  • Double diploma
  • Autonoma- Madrid Paris-Dauphine
  • In 2000, an agreement has been signed
  • leading to a joint degree.

25
  • The LMD reform
  • Main advantages
  • Adoption and generalisation of the credits system
  • Presentation of courses in term of objectives
  • Drawbacks
  • Funny diploma names
  • Too many courses units
  • Too much time spent in student assessment
