(Sciences Po Entrance)

Sciences Po alumni and former staff include around three past or present French presidents, twelve past or present French prime ministers, six past or present foreign presidents, and a former Secretary-General of the United Nations. Since the mid 1950s, virtually every French minister of note has attended the Institute, including the current French president, Jacques Chirac, and the prime minister, Dominique de Villepin. It is the best place for preparing initial admission to the École Nationale d'Administration. As a result, Sciences Po is widely regarded as the intellectual training ground for the French political and diplomatic elite, though it has also educated fourteen current CEO's of France's fourty largest companies.

Student Body & Method of Instruction

(Sciences Po Sign)

As of 2004, approximately one third of its student body was foreign. This abundance of diversity is largely a result of the recent academic and administrative reforms instituted. These reforms resulted in a program that encourages foreign study, interdisciplinary approaches, and hands-on collaboration with fellow students. Image File history File links ScPosign. ...

Instructors at the Institute are only rarely full professors, with that title reserved for a select few. Most instruction is given by professionals and practitioners from various fields related to policy-making, who agree to teach at the Institute part-time. For instance, many former government ministers, defense industry leaders, current diplomats, business leaders, and other career professionals teach during any given semester. This real-world approach is unique in French higher education, which is sometimes criticized as too philosophical and removed from the reality of the post-academic career.

History

The name Sciences Po refers to three institutions, the Ecole Libre des Sciences Politiques (founded in 1872) and replaced in 1945 by the Fondation Nationale des Sciences Politiques (FNSP), a research foundation, which manages the Institut d'Etudes Politiques (IEP), a teaching school.

1872-1945

(Gardens of Sciences Po)

The Sciences Po was established in 1872 as the École Libre des Sciences Politiques (ELSP) by a group of intellectuals, politicians and businessmen including Hippolyte Taine, Ernest Renan, Albert Sorel, Paul Leroy Beaulieu, François Guizot, and led by Emile Boutmy. Following the defeat in the 1870 war, the demise of Napoleon III, the Paris Commune, these men sought to introduce new teaching reforms in order to renew the training of French politicians. Academic disciplines were studied from a pragmatic and practical point of view: the teachers included not only famous academics but also practicians: Ministers, High civil servants at the Banque de France, members of the Conseil d'État. New matters such as compared constitutional history were introduced. Sport was compulsory, and an important emphasis was put on the study of contemporary foreign societies.

Since 1945: FNSP and IEP

(Gardens of the Sciences Po)

The École Libre des Sciences Politiques was nationalized by General de Gaulle in 1945. Two entities were created: first, the Fondation Nationale des Sciences Politiques (FNSP), a research foundation, with an assigned goal of "assuring the progress and the diffusion, both within and outside France, of political science, economics and sociology"; second, the Institut d'Études Politiques (IEP), the teaching school, administered by the FNSP. Designed to be the official training ground for the leaders of the French Republic, the Institute has played a very large role in the political history of the French speaking world, and the modern political history of Europe more generally.

Sciences Po - LSE - Columbia University

The Sciences Po recently formalized a major institutional alliance with the London School of Economics and Columbia University, which has been burgeoning for years. These schools are widely regarded as the most prestigious universities of their kind in the world's three capital cities, Paris, London, and New York. The purpose of the partnership is to foster greater academic collaboration between the students, faculty, and research centers of each institution. This specific alliance has resulted in myriad joint international policy-focused conferences held in Paris, London, and New York throughout the year. As well, the alliance has produced three joint-degree programs in International Relations, Negotiation, and the Practice of International Affairs with the LSE, a joint Master of International Affairs with Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs, and a joint law degree with Columbia Law School.

The network is meant to foster an academic research and policy dialogue among three of the world's leading public affairs schools to address pressing global problems.
