Lycée professionnel Jean Guehenno

Lycée professionnel Jean Guéhenno is a public institution located in Saint-Amand-Montrond, in the Cher department (académie d'Orléans-Tours). Alongside its vocational training programs, it offers higher education in design with a DN MADE mention Objet, a national degree at bachelor's level (bac+3) accessible via Parcoursup.

Context and orientation

Saint-Amand-Montrond and its surrounding area are historically associated with the jewelry trade and the working of precious metals, a territorial anchoring that nurtures the culture of the object and of materials carried by the institution. The DN MADE Objet fits within this workshop tradition: object design, relationship to use, gesture, and manufacturing processes.

Training content

As in all DN MADE programs, the training combines:

• generic teachings (culture of the arts, design, and techniques, foreign language, human sciences);
• practical and professional teachings: drawing, representation, volume, technology and materials, workshop projects;
• progressive professionalization with an internship and a end-of-cycle project, with a view to entering the workforce or continuing on to a DSAA/master's degree.

Who is it for?

For holders of general, technological (STD2A), or vocational baccalauréats interested in object design and craft skills, as well as students who have completed a mise à niveau year or a classe préparatoire aux arts appliqués.

It is advisable to check each year on Parcoursup and on the institution's website for the available tracks and admission procedures.
