Description of the WEU

The UEO offers, as in level 1, training with the tools and methods of geography in order to produce a text or an oral speech in geography. Regular training will help improve the written and oral expression of their knowledge as well as deepen their general mastery of geographical discourse.

In level 2, students will work on more complex tools (systemic diagrams, complex concepts, images, unusual sketches) with a higher level of requirements, which will mark the progression of this level 2

They will thus be able to continue to develop their knowledge but also the intellectual and technical tools to produce a coherent and scientific geographical discourse.

In addition, their expertise will be used to meet the needs of level 1 to help them progress. An additional skill is then developed.

This level 2 therefore deepens and completes the level 1 already followed.
