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 the ongoing process of European integration. Both in terms of its content and format, the programme has a distinguished identity. What is unique about our programme is its interdisciplinary nature. It is impossible to understand European integration from the perspective of only one discipline. Politics, law or economics alone are not enough to solve the European 'puzzle'. Therefore, the European Studies programme has a strong interdisciplinary character, drawing on fields such as: * History * Political sciences * Social sciences * Economics * Law European Studies is a three-year programme taught in English.
