Understanding Europe – Especially Now!
Whether it’s geopolitical tensions, economic challenges, or social change, Europe is facing numerous changes whose impact extends far beyond the borders of the European Union. To make sense of current developments and understand the complex interrelationships, we need a solid understanding of European politics, economics, law, and society.
This is precisely the knowledge imparted by the international, English-language master’s program in “European Studies” at the Postgraduate Center of the University of Vienna.
The master’s program views Europe as a space of constant change, integration, and debate. You will examine historical and current developments in European integration and analyze how legal, political, economic, and social processes interact at the regional, national, and European levels.
The program combines academic depth with high practical relevance. You will gain in-depth knowledge of the institutional architecture of the European Union, its legal foundations, political decision-making processes, and economic framework conditions. Perspectives from the cultural and social sciences also foster a nuanced understanding of Europeanization, diversity, and social change.
Deepen your knowledge of the history of European integration and explore the current challenges and developments facing the European Union.
The program combines perspectives from law, political science, economics, and the cultural and social sciences, and fosters analytical and interdisciplinary thinking.
Study alongside students from all over the world in an international setting and benefit from diverse academic and cultural perspectives.
The program combines academic foundations with practical issues and prepares you for careers in European and international organizations, public administration, NGOs, or businesses.
