Master's level exchanges
Many of Sciences Po Grenoble - UGA's Masters courses are open to international mobility for students from our partner universities. Specialized courses, teaching options in French or English and a selective application system for an enriching academic experience.
Choice of graduate course (master's level)
Only students selected and nominated by a university linked to Sciences Po Grenoble - UGA by a bilateral exchange agreement are eligible for mobility within our master's programs. Graduate programs and their courses are not open to the Free-Mover program.
The nature and validation of the choice of the graduate course in which you will carry out your mobility will depend on the essential criteria developed below on this page:
