Studijní obor 6702T: European Studies (ESA)

PROGRAMME FOR ACADEMIC YEAR 2015 - 2016

European Studies is a two-year transdisciplinary Master Programme aiming at providing students with complex and in-depth understanding of the European integration process in its broader historical and political context. Courses offered as part of the programme thus cover not only the legal, institutional, political and economic dimensions of European integration, but also also its social and cultural aspects as well as the dynamics of EU-member states interaction and the role of the EU in international relations and global governance. The programme is especially designed for students who plan to enter positions in EU institutions, international organizations, national administrations or non-governmental sector.
