General Information

Additional Information

In 2004, Dauphine was granted the status of grand établissement, which has enabled the university to have a highly selective admissions process. While giving the university more freedom in its actions, it also allowed it to consolidate an ambitious project based on a coherent range of selective, vocationally oriented courses. The essential academic objectives of the university focus on development and valorisation of research, initial training and continuing education.
