Research is a major part of the training. Students must prepare individual and collective work (research reports and/or dissertations). The exercises of studying a file also require the mobilization of important documentation, which must be synthesized. The methodology of constructing a research project is covered in the dissertation in the first year. The methodology of research is further developed in the second year in the framework of the elaboration of different research reports and the dissertation.

The Master's research-based training is supported by the Center for Economic Law (UR 4224), which includes a banking-finance-asset management unit. Each year, students are invited to attend scientific events (workshops, conferences, symposiums, etc.) organized by the laboratory or by the Master's department on current topics related to banking and finance.
