The Master's in European Studies is a practice-oriented postgraduate course. You will take courses in private and public management, law, economics and politics - always with the European Union in mind. After the first introductory weeks of study, you will get to know “Brussels”, more precisely the EU institutions and the public and private sector organizations that interact with them, at our intensive seminar in Brussels, which we run together with partner institutions from Riga and Western Switzerland.
In order to fully prepare you for your career - be it a career in the EU institutions, in the diplomatic service or in the government and administration of member states or EU partner states or in business - you also have the opportunity to participate in a career development program or to take courses in intercultural management, group processes or personal skills development. Career opportunities for graduates of the European Studies Master's program range from leadership positions in the private and public sectors to lobbying activities and political office.
European Studies will offer many job opportunities in the EU in the coming years. The average age of EU officials in EU institutions is around 59. So: The EU needs you, the young generation of EU citizens! We will prepare you.
You will acquire intercultural competence, which is increasingly in demand in companies and organizations. This applies to EU institutions as well as to public administration, the foreign service and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The Master's is also the ideal preparation for management or consulting activities or an academic career.
International graduates can use the job-seeking visa to prepare for the next step in their career.
