European Studies

If your ideas stretch beyond national borders and you speak different languages, then the European Studies programme is the degree for you. In this internationally oriented programme, you get to explore current affairs across a broad spectrum, from the European Union to European policy and from diplomatic relations to international business. There's an increasing demand for people with a broad knowledge of Europe, extensive cultural awareness and communication skills in different languages – for both national and international organisations. With the European Studies programme you learn about Europe, develop your international and practical insights and work on your personal development. The course covers a broad range of subjects including European law, governance, economics and public administration as well as multilingual communication skills and cross-cultural awareness. By the time you graduate, you will be optimally prepared to handle European and international matters effectively. Whether you work at local, regional, national or European level, you'll be able to make a difference in a single Europe.
