Universiteit Maastricht

Student profile

The programme is directed toward:

  • university graduates who are interested in developing an international career in policy-making and European integration
  • professionals whose position requires expertise in decision-making in the European public domain

As students come from a host of countries, both European and non-European, and the programme relies on teamwork and personal interaction, inter-cultural cooperation is a crucial requirement for participation in this programme.

Applicants should hold the equivalent of a degree (bachelor's or master's) in political science, history, law, international relations, economics, social science, business administration, humanities or liberal arts. Particularly motivated students can also hold a degree in science or another discipline. Practical experience in the form of an internship or a job related to European public affairs is considered an asset.
