Master's degree (France)
In the French education system, a master's degree is both a national higher education diploma and a university degree. The Diplôme National de Master is delivered by an academic institution, usually a university, two years after obtaining a Diplôme National de Licence or a Licence or any other diploma or qualification equivalent to 300 ECTS recognized by the French government. It confers the degree of the same name. A grade de master may also be awarded with an Accredited Diploma by non-university institutions such as Grandes Écoles. The French Ministry of Higher Education has set up a web portal listing all the masters available in France: MonMaster.gouv.fr.
