Sciences Po Law School (French: L'École de droit de Sciences Po) is a graduate school created in 2009 inside Sciences Po in Paris, France.
In 2009, Sciences Po created the "École de droit de Sciences Po" ("law school", as opposed in French to a faculté de droit, "faculty of law"), delivering graduate degrees only, after a controversy regarding the access to the bar for Sciences Po students.
