UCT’s longstanding partnership with Sciences Po University

The 27-year partnership between the University of Cape Town (UCT) and Sciences Po University in Paris has fostered a rich history of academic exchange and collaboration. Building on this longstanding relationship, the two institutions have now identified the opportunity to develop joint master’s degrees.

A pivotal moment in this collaboration occurred when UCT delegates from the international and research offices accompanied the interim VC to Sciences Po earlier this year to lay down the foundation and initiate the programme's development. In turn, Vice-Chancellor Prof. Moshabela welcomed representatives from Sciences Po to UCT. Colleagues finalised the partnership details, ensuring that the joint degree would meet the highest academic standards and provide students with a truly global education experience.

As UCT and Science Po prepare to launch these joint collaborative degrees in the near future, the partners look forward to continuing their legacies of academic excellence and cross-continental collaboration, creating unique opportunities for students from both universities in Cape Town and Paris.
