About the Sciences Po - UC Berkeley Dual Degree Program
Students in the Dual Degree Program spend their first two years at one of three Sciences Po campuses in France, each with a unique focus and geography. All instruction is offered in English.
Students complete their last two years at UC Berkeley. During that time, students will be in the College of Letters and Science. They will take University, College, and Major requirements. Most students will select a major in the Social Sciences, which builds on the foundation they developed at Sciences Po.
Students who successfully complete this program, receive a Bachelor’s degree in Social Sciences from Sciences Po and a Bachelor’s of Arts degree in the major they pursue in the College of Letters and Science from UC Berkeley. All graduates of the program are guaranteed admission into one of Sciences Po’s Masters programs.
About the Berkeley International Group
The Berkeley International Group (BIG), an initiative of the Global Engagement Office, is composed of UC Berkeley faculty and staff who are invited to meet monthly to collaborate and participate in informal discussions related to the international work across campus. The group meets for one hour during the first week of every month, with the host(s) deciding upon the topic, date, time, and location of the meeting. Each meeting is hosted by a different unit on campus.
If you would like to receive announcements of future BIG events, please add yourself to the bConnected list or email geo@berkeley.edu. Please note this list is for UC Berkeley faculty and staff only.
