=== 1945 to 1996: The Chapsal-Gentot-Lancelot era ===
From 1947 to 1979, Sciences Po is directed by [[Jacques Chapsal]], who replaced his mentor Roger Seydoux and led the school through the [[Trente Glorieuses]] expansion as well as the [[May 68]] crisis. Under Chapsal, Sciences Po expands geographically. After the acquisition of the ''Hôtel de La Meilleraye'' (56–58, rue des Saints-Pères), just across Sciences Po's lawn, the school bought the ''hôtel de La Bretesche'' at number 30, rue Saint-Guillaume, just in front of the main building.<ref name=":3" /> In 1976, the ''Presses de Sciences Po'' (Sciences Po's publishing company) is created.<ref name=":3" />

In 1956, Sciences Po created its first PhD program. The CEVIPOF, Center for Political Research, is created in 1960.<ref name=":3" />

Between 1952 and 1969, 77.5% of the ENA's graduate student intake were Sciences Po alumni.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Nord |first1=Philip |title=The Jacobin Legacy in Modern France: Essays in Honour of Vincent Wright |date=2002 |publisher=Oxford University Press |location=Oxford |isbn=9780199256464 |page=117 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rCfPBj-7g2IC&q=Reform,+Conservation+and+Adaptation:+Sciences+Po,+from+the+Popular+Front+to+the+Liberation&pg=PA115 |access-date=20 October 2020 |archive-date=9 April 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220409131955/https://books.google.com/books?id=rCfPBj-7g2IC&q=Reform,+Conservation+and+Adaptation:+Sciences+Po,+from+the+Popular+Front+to+the+Liberation&pg=PA115 |url-status=live}}</ref>
