A Master’s Degree in Medicine & Health Sciences is a graduate option for applicants who already want study beyond first degree level and are choosing between 17 programmes. It suits students aiming for advanced academic or professional study in health-related fields.

The institutions are all public, so the main decision is less about public versus private and more about location and programme fit. The list includes universities and institutions in places such as Le Havre, Nantes, Perpignan, Rennes, Toulouse, Nanterre and Nîmes, so city setting and access will matter to many applicants. Fees are not provided for these options, so the cost difference needs direct confirmation.

Before applying, verify the tuition fee, the exact programme title, the teaching language, entry requirements, application deadline and any research or clinical placement conditions. You should also confirm whether the option you want is available at the institution you are considering, since the decision needs to match the specific programme, not only the subject and degree level.
