About

Sciences Po is an institution of higher education and research in the humanities and social sciences. Its work in law, economics, history, political science and sociology is pursued through eleven research units and several crosscutting programmes. In 2022, its research community includes over two hundred seventy members and three hundred fifty PhD candidates. Recognised internationally, their work covers a wide range of topics such as inequality, education, democracies, urban development, globalisation and public health. One of Sciences Po’s key objectives is to make a significant contribution to methodological, epistemological and theoretical advances in the humanities and social sciences. Sciences Po’s mission is also to share the results of its research with the international research community, students, and more broadly, society as a whole.
