is based on the balance between quantitative and qualitative methods, the versatility of its teaching aims at developing the students' ability to synthesize and to bring out interrelated solutions, in touch with the reality of the populations. The program supports ambitious training through the acquisition of theoretical and empirical tools from a national and African perspective.

The degree in Political Science is made up of two blocks:

• a block containing a set of modules followed by all the students of each of these two undergraduate programs – in other words a “Major” 
• 6 modules, students choose from a list of 7 concentrations – in other words a “Minor”   

The diversity of possible combinations between the "Major" and the "Minor" allows the students to build a tailor-made profile, adapted to their aspirations and meeting the current requirements of the labor market.

The choice of a concentration is not compulsory in the Applied Economics, Behavioral Sciences for Public Policy and Public Law undergraduate programs.
