Undergraduate College courses are multidisciplinary and cover the fields of economics, history, international relations, law, political science and the humanities. There is no compulsory major or specific programme for exchange students. Students can therefore enroll in any of the many courses offered by the College, in the discipline of their choice. Students can also choose as many courses as they like and think they can manage, according to their personal interests and the requirements of their home university.
Undergraduate and graduate exchange students can take courses taught in English or in French. You cannot take a mixture of French and English (other than the French Language course).
Please review these links regarding courses and policies:
Students are highly encouraged to take a French language class. Students wishing to take a language class in another foreign language must have previously studied the language.
Sciences Po limits their students and exchange students to 30 ECTS (their equivalent to units) per semester.
