Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  cchat: It's a "licence appliquée" so I don't agree with the translation, but I think Bachelor is probably correct. It is most likely some form of vocational degree.

agree  f2etranslations: I think That Francois has a good translation. English speaking education establishments tend to put the 'applied' as a description of the course whereas in France the emphasis is that the degree is 'applied'

BSc Environmental Science


Explanation:
BSc in the UK rather than BA due to the more scientific 'applied' nature. This is a common course in UK universities.
