University level third stage: Troisième Cycle:
The Diplôme d'Etudes supérieures spécialisées (DESS) and the Diplôme d'Etudes approfondies (DEA) represent completion of a further one or two years of academic studies beyond the Maîtrise. The Doctorat de Spécialité de Troisième Cycle requires one or two years' further study beyond the DESS or DEA. It is now replaced by the Doctorat unique, awarded two or three years after the DEA and the presentation of a major thesis. In Medicine, the professional qualification of Docteur en Médecine is awarded to candidates who have undertaken seven years' study. The Doctorat d'Ingénieur requires three years' study beyond the Diplôme d'Ingénieur.

SJLD
: does that exist in English speaking countries?/What does it mean then?/Exactly - "single" is only meaningful in that there were multiple ways of obtaining a doctoral degree before - now there is only one which is equivalent to a PhD.

Quite probably not, but that doesn't prevent the term being understood by English speakers/I believe the two links given describe the reforms leading to the use of this term/We have D.Phil,D.Ed,DBA - doctorate is a safer translation + single in context
