Founded in 2007, the Le Havre campus is the Euro-Asian campus of Sciences Po Paris.

Within the frame of the multidisciplinary programme in humanities and social sciences provided to the whole University College, the students have the opportunity to further their knowledge on the political, geopolitical, and economic issues of the Asian continent, from a comparative perspective with Europe.

By undertaking this course delivered in English, students will be introduced to the historical, economical, sociological, philosophical, and artistic perspectives of Asian and Pacific countries, from India to Japan, to China and Australia. The issues addressed (political violence, economic growth and sustainable development, influence of Confucianism, etc.) enable students to acquaint themselves with the Asian continent's rich multi-millennial history and incredible economic dynamism from a humanities and social sciences perspective.

To complement the programme, several Asian languages are taught, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Indonesian. French as a Foreign Language classes are also available to students who do not have a B1 level equivalent in French.

The Le Havre campus accommodates almost 300 students, of whom over 65% come from foreign countries. This cultural diversity makes the first two years on campus an international experience in itself, which is capped off with a third year abroad at one of Sciences Po's 470 partner universities or with a dual degree.

7 international dual degree programmes

Columbia University, University of California – Berkeley, University of British Columbia (UBC), Keio University, National University of Singapore (NUS), Hong Kong University, University of Sydney.

Campus life is vibrant thanks to the wide range of clubs and associations on offer and the many events scheduled throughout the year. The students are encouraged to initiate and take part in debates, conferences, and sports and cultural events. They are also encouraged to get involved in initiatives with the local community and commit to citizen engagement.

Thanks to small class sizes, the students enjoy very close attention from the faculty for both their studies and extra-curricular activities.
