European Studies

The bachelor's programme in European Studies is for students with a broad interest in the political, historical, social and cultural aspects of Europe in its widest sense, including the ongoing process of European integration.

 

European Studies is a three-year programme taught in English and based on the method of problem-based learning. Both in terms of its content and format, the programme has a distinguished identity. What sets us apart from other programmes on Europe:



  •     our small class size
  •     thematic structure
  •     interdisciplinary approach
  •     combination of theory and practice

 

You will discuss a variety of Europe-related themes in small tutorial groups. Together with your peers, you will work to formulate solutions to practical problems facing today's Europe. European Studies offers a fascinating learning environment in which staff and students from various European countries share their perspectives. Here, you will experience first hand the spirit of European integration.
