Sciences Po’s Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA) and Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) share the conviction that the best education for future policy experts and senior decision-makers in international affairs is the product of the combination of a solid multidisciplinary base in social sciences and an in-depth specialization.
Building on the complementary approaches of two prestigious institutions with rich and diverse academic traditions, Sciences Po (PSIA) and Columbia University (SIPA), both members of the Association of Professional School of International Affairs (APSIA), decided as early as 2000 to combine their strengths and offer a dual Master’ s degree program in International Affairs.
The dual degree program in international affairs open to all candidates worldwide.
