International and National Dual Degrees

In partnership with prestigious, internationally renowned universities and leading French Grandes écoles, the School of Public Affairs has developed dual-degree programmes that allow students to experience a different and complementary academic culture, both in terms of approaches and methodologies, and to earn a degree from both institutions upon completion of their studies.

The School of Public Affairs offers 11 international dual-degree programmes in Europe, the United States, Canada and Asia.

For most international dual-degree programmes, the first year (M1) takes place at Sciences Po, within either the Master in Public Policy or the Master in European Affairs, along with a policy-stream chosen at the time of application. The second year (M2) then takes place at the partner university. 

The School of Public Affairs also offers 5 national dual-degree programmes, open exclusively to Sciences Po students and/or students from partner institutions.
