Congratulations to the 2,746 Graduates of the Class of 2026!

As the 2025/2026 academic year draws to a close, 2,746 Master’s students were invited to their graduation ceremony, which took place this year at the Grand Rex movie theatre in the centre of Paris, followed by a cocktail reception on our Saint-Thomas campus. Spread over four ceremonies and across two days, this highlight of the academic year was open to students’ parents and relatives: more than 9,000 people attended.

A Ceremony to Celebrate the Class of 2026

The graduation ceremony is an important milestone in the academic journey at Sciences Po. Students are invited to take to the stage to receive their diplomas in front of their peers and families.

Les remises de diplômes sont lancées par des animations assurées par les associations étudiantes qui font vivre Sciences Po toute l'année : danses avec Art'core et Bailemos, concert des Trompettes du 27 et art oratoire avec Sciences Polémiques.

The graduation ceremonies are kicked off with performances provided by the student associations that contribute to the vibrant atmosphere at Sciences Po all year round: dance shows by Art'core and Bailemos, a concert by the Trompettes du 27 and the art of public speaking by Sciences Polémiques.

A video Look Back at the Year’s Highlights

Every year at Sciences Po is filled with countless events; some have become annual fixtures, whilst others are truly one-of-a-kind occasions.

Watch the videos featuring our grandes conférences with the leading figures who have chosen Sciences Po to engage with the next generation – the decision-makers of tomorrow – and the highlights of our institution’s thriving campus life:

We wish the entire Class of 2026 every success for the future! With their Sciences Po degree in hand, we hope that each and every one will find their career path, just like the respondents to our 2025 Graduate Employability Survey, who work in a wide variety of sectors (private, public, charities or NGOs, international organisations) and 98 per cent of whom found a job within six months, with more than half even securing a position before graduating.
