Sciences Po Lille
(Institut d’Études Politiques, IEP) is charged with study and research
of contemporary politics, though students take a range of classes across
the social sciences. The College of William & Mary’s exchange
program with Lille is ideal for French majors or minors with an interest
in the social sciences and politics. Classes are offered in economics,
international relations, French political life, sociology, political
anthropology, and more. W&M students may choose from the full
university curriculum and courses are offered in a variety of languages,
including English. Please note, 8 ECTS credits are equivalent to 4
W&M credits.
Lille, capital of the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France, is a city of contrasts. It is home to a city center with buildings dating from the 17th century and outlying areas built up around modern industrialization. In and around Lille there are hundreds of museums, historic sites and buildings, and parks and recreation areas. The Palais des Beaux Arts de Lille, the Fine Arts Museum, houses a collection of paintings, sculptures, and ceramics dating from the 15th century. It is considered the second most important art collection in France, following the Louvre. The city has a vibrant nightlife and on weekends locals meander around Lille’s many markets.
Assisted enrollment requires W&M students to pay tuition to Sciences Po Lille. Out-of-state students often find assisted enrollment the best option. All W&M students pay housing, meals and fees on-site in Lille. There is no on-campus housing available on this program, but staff at Lille will assist offer students some assistance in finding suitable accommodations.
The Reves Center advisor for the Sciences Po Lille exchange program is Theresa Johansson.
