PRESAGE - Sciences Po's Gender Studies Programme sets a goal to develop gender studies at Sciences Po, both in undergraduate and graduate studies. The various courses available to students are particularly designed to give them an understanding of the formation of gender inequalities, their role within other forms of social inequality, forms and practices of discrimination, in addition to historical and conceptual aspects of gender relations and the impact of gender norms.
Sciences Po graduates who acquired demonstrable academic expertise within the field of gender studies can testify to their skills and education in the professional world by obtaining the Advanced Certification in Gender Studies.
