"This dual degree between our institution and the Tata Institute of Social Sciences is one of a kind in the world. Just like Sciences Po's unique teaching model, it combines fundamental interdisciplinary knowledge in the humanities and social sciences (politics, sociology, economics, law, history, urban planning, and geography) with solid professional experience through field immersion, with a strong focus on women's rights, anti-poverty initiatives and the most challenging issues relating to water and waste management. By living for a year in Paris and another year in Mumbai, the students enrolled in this dual degree will gain a deeper insight into the challenges of urban development around the world", said Tommaso Vitale, Dean of Sciences Po's Urban School.
