Certificat d’Etudes Politiques The IEP proposes to its international students who have a good level in French to prepare a specific degree (Diplôme Universitaire): le Certificat d’Etudes Politiques (CEP) (= the Certificate of Political Studies). In order to obtain the CEP, students have to attend specific classes : 2 fundamental courses - Institutions politiques comparées (20 hours) = 7 ECTS (1st semester), - Vie politique et institutions françaises (20 hours) = 7 ECTS (2nd semester). 2 “conférences de méthode” (during the entire academic year) to be chosen between: - Sociologie Politique (36 hours) = 12 ECTS, - Problèmes Internationaux Contemporains (36 hours) = 12 ECTS, - Questions Economiques Contemporaines (36 hours) = 12 ECTS. - Construire l’action publique. Actions publiques comparées (36 hours) = 12 ECTS - Enjeux économiques et sociaux contemporains (36 hours)=12 ECTS Please note that attendance at these “conférences de méthodes” is obligatory. A minimum of 5 courses to be chosen within the list of courses available to international students. A “grand Oral”: an oral exam testing the general knowledge of the students and their capacity to structure what they have learned = 5 ECTS. Course Load per All depends on the needs of the students. Please note that most of the semester courses are worth 5 ECTS or 6 ECTS. Language of Instruction A majority of courses are taught in French language. We propose enough English taught courses for students with no French to complete an entire semester (or academic year). We also offer 4-5 courses in Spanish each semester.
