École supérieure de journalisme de Paris

The École supérieure de journalisme is an institution of higher education in Paris dedicated to journalism and related studies. Its origin was in the Collège Libre des Sciences Sociales founded in 1895 by Dick May, and other supporters during the Dreyfus Affair. It was made a separate school in 1899 and claims the title of the "world's first school of journalism". Intended to give students a broad knowledge of politics and economics, it did not award a separate journalism degree by name until 1910.
