Lycée professionnel Pierre Vernotte

The Lycée professionnel Pierre Vernotte is a public institution located in Moirans-en-Montagne, in the Jura, at the heart of an industrial basin historically oriented toward woodworking, turning, plastics processing and toy manufacturing — the town is also home to the Musée du Jouet.

Alongside its vocational and technical programs, the school offers a DN MADE mention Objet (national diploma in crafts and design, bachelor's level), accessible via Parcoursup after a general, technological or vocational baccalauréat.

Educational Orientation

The DN MADE Objet trains students in product design: usage analysis, furniture design, household objects, games and toys, packaging or accessories. The teaching combines theoretical instruction (design culture, art history, technology, artistic expression) with intensive studio practice: drawing, model-making, prototyping, materials and processes.

The site's main asset lies in its environment: the proximity of workshops, plastics companies, mold makers and toy manufacturers fosters projects with real partners, factory visits and internships, as well as a solid understanding of the constraints of series manufacturing.

Good to Know

This is a modest-sized structure, in a small mountain town: supervision is close-knit, but housing and mobility issues must be anticipated. The diploma allows students to go on to a master's degree, an art or design school, or to enter directly into a design studio.
