The 5 Secrets of the Reims Campus

Every year, the Reims campus hosts about 1,600 students. 49% of the student body comes from abroad, with 90 nationalities represented.

The Reims campus opened its doors in 2010 and hosts two minors: Africa and North America, in a comparative analysis approach with Europe. The campus has also been hosting since 2020 one of the four interdisciplinary double degrees in sciences and social sciences (Bachelor of Arts and Sciences - BASc) offered by Sciences Po. Entitled "Environment and sustainable society", this four-year bachelor's degree combining social sciences with life sciences is carried out in partnership with the University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne.

Some of its students are also enrolled in dual degrees with seven of our Undergraduate College's renowned international partners: Columbia University, University of California Berkeley, University of British Columbia, National University of Singapore, University of Hong Kong, University of Sydney, and Luiss University.
