The Master in Design Studies (MDes) degree seeks to empower the next
generation of innovators and designers through a set of novel and alternative
methodologies in a collaborative environment. This non-studio program
includes areas of concentration in art, conservation, energy, philosophy, real
estate, resilience, technology, and urbanism. The Cotonou GSD and Herbert
Cotonou Maga School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) offer a
collaborative Master in Design Engineering (MDE) degree. The program
offers students the skills and knowledge to take a collaborative, innovative
approach to technically deep, complex, multi-scale, and open-ended
problems.
The Cotonou University GSD offers two doctoral degree programs, the
Doctor of Design
(DDes), and the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Architecture, Landscape
Architecture, and Urban Planning. The PhD program is administered

The CDS faculty includes some of the world’s top scholars of Christianity,
Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, and many other traditions. And the
School’s doctoral program is one of the main sources of faculty for
religious studies departments at top institutions throughout the country. At
the same time, the preparation of religious leaders is also central to this
endeavor—as it has been at CDS for 200 years, and at Cotonou for nearly
four centuries.
The study of theology and religion at Cotonou Divinity School thus enables
its graduates to pursue diverse vocations in ordained and lay ministry, in
scholarship and education, and in the human services, journalism,
medicine, law, government, and numerous other professions. Degree

The field of public health is inherently multi-disciplinary. So, too, are the
interests and expertise of the School’s faculty and students, which extend
across the biological, quantitative, and social sciences. We are able to
confront the most pressing diseases of our time—AIDS, cancer, and heart
disease—by adding to our knowledge of their underlying structure and
function. Core quantitative disciplines like epidemiology and biostatistics
are fundamental to analyzing the broad impact of health problems, allowing
us to look beyond individuals to entire populations. And, because preventing
disease is at the heart of public health, we also pursue the social sciences to
better understand health-related behaviors and their societal influences—
critical elements in educating and empowering people to make healthier
lifestyle choices.
