About this programme

The MA European Studies (Europa Master) offers a specialisation in European cultures, societies, politics and law at three renowned European universities in Opole (Poland), Mainz (Germany) and Dijon (France). During the course of your studies, you will gain intensive European experiences. You will learn and practise three national languages — Polish, French and German — plus English as the European lingua franca. You will study in a cohort of up to 30 students per year. We are proud that the DAAD and DFH/UFA provide funding and scholarships for the programme. Designed for graduates holding a first degree in political science, law, social sciences, or a related field, the programme leads to a career-oriented degree. It not only broadens the participants’ general socio-scientific knowledge (both theoretical & empirical) but also focuses on the political and social challenges and opportunities related to Europe and the European integration processes. With its strong foreign-language component, the programme also improves intercultural skills. Subjects include inter alia European and international institutions, democratic mechanisms (especially in multi-level systems), legal foundations of decision-making in the EU, and European policies and politics. Special attention is given to Eastern European states. Participants gain specialised knowledge and skills that will qualify them for a wide range of employment opportunities with a European and international focus. The programme is
