It is the first major Pan-African school dedicated to the study of political science.

Dakar Science Po aims to be a pole of excellence for political science studies in Senegal and the rest of Africa. It opens up broad perspectives in the new knowledge economy.

Why choose Dakar Science Po?
Because the quality of training provided here is an unavoidable need and requirement in the face of changes in the modern world. Dakar Science Po aims to be the reference and the pole of excellence in political science teaching, for the understanding and mastery of the main themes that interest political studies, notably organizations, forces, behaviors, elites and the different actors.
This Pan-African Grande Ecole was born out of a realization that Africa, in the field of political knowledge, needs well-trained actors, experienced researchers, informed analysts and political scientists who are well versed in the study of political phenomena and capable of studying the processes that bring into play the power relationships between individuals and groups, particularly within the State.
Dakar Science Po is therefore the permanent training and research of know-how in political science in order to build a quality African expertise in this field.
Opting for Dakar Science Po also means being open to other political experiences in the world.
At Dakar Science Po, we train not only an African expertise capable of taking into account the challenges of the continent, but also and above all, an elite with a naturally positive attitude. This is why, in our selection process, emphasis is placed on the applicant’s behavioral, analytical, and academic skills in political science.
Being selected to study at Dakar Science Po is not only a privilege, but also an opportunity to discover one’s talent and all the structures of one’s personality in perfect correlation with all the professions induced by the training and/or resulting from political science.
Being a student at Dakar Science Po is also a state of mind focused on positivity and community life. Dakar Science Po is a great school that welcomes multicultural students from different social backgrounds.
To enter Dakar Science Po is to plunge into a world where diversity of opinions and the right to be different, with strict respect for others, are the rules for meetings, communication and exchanges.
Dakar Science Po’s ambition is to contribute to the advent of a new form of governance in Africa, by encouraging good practices in the field, to give back to politics its true value and its titles of nobility throughout the continent by proposing positive breaks and alternatives to the current practices in almost all our countries.
Finally, Dakar Science Po wishes to share and consolidate the idea that politics is the art of governing societies and people, organizations or institutions by leading them to happiness, prosperity, peace and security.
