Paris Dauphine University - PSL (French: Université Paris-Dauphine, also known as Paris Dauphine - PSL or Dauphine - PSL) is a public research university based in Paris, France. It is one of the 13 universities formed by the division of the ancient University of Paris (metonymically known as the Sorbonne). It is the only French institution of higher education that is both a grande école and a university.[2] Dauphine is also a founding member and constituent college of PSL University.[3]

Dauphine is renowned for its teaching in finance, economics, mathematics, law, and business strategy.[4] Dauphine is a selective university with the status of grand établissement; this unique legal status within the French higher education system allows Dauphine to be a selective university.[5] On average, 90 to 95% of accepted students received either high distinctions or the highest distinctions at their French High School National Exam results (Examen National du Baccalauréat).[6]

Dauphine is also a founding member and constituent college of PSL University; it ranks 1st in France and in the top 50 worldwide.[7][8][9][10] It is also a member of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles.

History

Founded in 1968, Dauphine specialises in the organization and decision sciences: Management, Economics, Law, Political Science, Sociology, Applied Mathematics, Management Information Systems and Languages.

In 2011, Université Paris-Dauphine became officially recognized as one of the 16 partners and co-founders of Paris Sciences et Lettres University .

International relations

Dauphine's international relations cover:

Some notable Dauphine professors include Pierre-Louis Lions (Fields Medal in 1994), and Witold Litwin (inventor of linear hashing and fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery in France).

Admissions

The University Paris IX Dauphine is one of the very few universities allowed to legally practice the selection at the entrance of students in France. The legal vagueness related to this "status" as an experimental university allowed it to select students on the bases of their bac scores. This situation led Dauphine transitioning to the status of Grand établissement in 2004. On the other hand, there has always been a form of selection at the entrance to the 2nd cycle (graduate) for the Masters.

There is no admission bar as such at Paris-Dauphine University, since many criteria are taken into account in the evaluation of a bachelor's degree. However, 94.4% of those admitted in the first year of bachelor in June 2013 had obtained a good or very good honors degree.

67% of its students achieved "Very good" (distinction – summa cum laude) in the General Baccalaureate. Regarding Dauphine's most sought-after master's degrees, the admission rate is 3%.
