General presentation
Discover FDSP
Open since the 2014–2015 academic year, the Faculty of Law and Political Science has already seen several cohorts of graduates from its different cycles enter the labour market.
The Faculty develops an original offering that combines legal and political sciences with related disciplines such as economics and management within the LMD system.
Since the 2018–2019 academic year, its offering has included the Certificate of Capacity in Law and Economics, Research and Professional Master’s programs and a Doctorate, with the collaboration of national and international partner universities.
This outlook enables students to study the French, CEMAC, OHADA, CIMA and OAPI legal systems in order to develop their competitiveness and professional integration.
