Organisation

Sciences Po institutes are Grandes Écoles, a French institution of

French public university system. Similar to the Ivy League in the United States, Oxbridge in the UK, and C9 League in China, Grandes Écoles are elite academic institutions that admit students through an extremely competitive process.[7][8][9] Alums go on to occupy elite positions within government, administration, and corporate firms in France.[10][11]

The institute is modeled on the former

École Libre des Sciences Politiques
, and as such, Sciences Po uses an interdisciplinary approach to education that provides student generalists with the high level of grounding in skills that they need in History, Law, Economic Sciences, Sociology, Political science and International relations, enriched by specialization in years 4 and 5, after a 3rd year either on a professional placement in France or overseas or alternatively studying at a foreign university.

Although these institutes are more expensive than public universities in France, Grandes Écoles typically have much smaller class sizes and student bodies, and many of their programs are taught in English. International internships, study abroad opportunities, and close ties with government and the corporate world are a hallmark of the Grandes Écoles. Many of the top ranked schools in Europe are members of the

Conférence des Grandes Écoles (CGE), as are the Sciences Po institutions.[12][13] Degrees from Sciences Po are accredited by the Conférence des Grandes Écoles[14] and awarded by the Ministry of National Education (France) (French: Le Ministère de L'éducation Nationale).[15]
