Course objectives
The theoretical framework of the curriculum is completed with the practical experience, gained in one of the public administration institutions in France. The traineeship takes place in an institution selected by the partner university (Univeristé Rennes I, IPAG) in accordance with the professional orientation of the students. The aim of this course is to learn the practical aspects of French public administration functioning, to connect the theoretical knowledge with a concrete situation in the institution, and to compare the Czech and French public administration running.
