  • Academic Grades & Notation Sorbonne University
    International Relations Office Incoming Erasmus+ Mobility Cécile Rochefort & Roberta Giubrone Phone : 00.33 (0)1.40.46.47.79 [email protected] ACADEMIC GRADES AND NOTATION AT SORBONNE UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF ARTS AND HUMANITIES Sorbonne University is using the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS). The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a tool which enables students to collect credits for learning achieved through higher education. ECTS credits are based on the workload students need in order to achieve expected learning outcomes. At Sorbonne University, all our marks are out of 20. For information, Sorbonne University – Faculty of Arts and Humanities stands amongst one the most difficult grading systems in France. It is important to note that a 10/20 is a good grade, and that it stands for the passing grade. The credit part refers to the number of European credits the course provides. It is based on the 30 credits per semester system that French students must pass to validate one semester. It does not refer to the number of hours taken for one course. When noted “ Absentee ”, it means that your student did not attend the course. When noted “ Attended ”, it means that your student attended the course but didn’t sit the exam. You can freely choose to give them the ECTS or not. When noted “ Passed ”, it means that your student attended the course and passed the exam, but there is no grade because the professor doesn’t give grades to their students. The local grade ( /20) is the most relevant information you should consider to validate your students’ semester/year at Sorbonne University - Faculty of Arts and Humanities .

Following defeat in the 1870 war, the demise of Napoleon III, and the Paris Commune, these men sought to reform the training of French politicians. Politically and economically, people feared France's international stature was waning due to inadequate teaching of its political and diplomatic corps. The new school developed a humanistic and pragmatic teaching program with instructors including academics as well as practitioners such as ministers, high civil servants, and businessmen. Sidney and Beatrice Webb used the purpose and curriculum of Sciences Po as part of their inspiration for creating the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1895. Sciences Po further strengthened its role as a scientific publication centre with significant donations from the Rockefeller Foundation. Sciences Po periodicals such as la Revue française de science politique, la Chronologie politique africaine, and the Cahiers de la Fondation as well as its nine research centers and main publishing house, Presses de Sciences Po, contribute to the notoriety attained by Sciences Po research. Sciences Po has undergone many reforms and introduced a compulsory year abroad component to its Bachelor degree, and now offers a multilingual curriculum in French, English, and other languages.
