Master Informatique — Informatique, Décision, Données / IDD (M1)

At Université Paris Sciences et Lettres, tuition fees are 250 EUR per year.

This first-year master's program, titled Informatique, Décision, Données, or Computer Science, Decision, and Data, is offered by Université Paris sciences et lettres in Paris, France. The program sits within computer science, a discipline concerned with the theory, design, and application of computing systems, algorithms, and data processing methods. Typical subjects in this area include programming, algorithm design, data structures, databases, and the mathematical foundations of computing, such as discrete mathematics and probability. Given the program's emphasis on decision and data, students are also likely to study topics such as data analysis, optimization, decision theory, and methods for extracting and interpreting information from large datasets, areas that increasingly overlap with statistics and operations research. Coursework may cover how computational tools support decision-making in organizations, including data modeling, machine learning fundamentals, and the design of systems that process and analyze information at scale. Students in computer science programs of this kind build both theoretical understanding and practical programming skills, often through project-based work that applies computational methods to real problems. Graduates commonly pursue careers as software developers, data analysts, data scientists, or systems engineers, and in roles that combine technical computing skills with decision support and data-driven analysis across various industries. The program is delivered over two years at the master's level, with instruction in French, and is expected to start in September. Annual tuition is 250 EUR. Based in Paris, students have access to a wide range of technology companies and research institutions active in computing and data science.
