Minor in European Studies [30.0]

Retour en début de pageStudy objectives

The program, which amounts to 30 credits, is intended to be an interdisciplinary subject as it offers courses in law, economics, history and civilization and political science. The aims of the course are twofold: equip students with general theoretical training which meets university demand in the field of European integration whilst at the same time providing them with an introduction to what's going on in the European integration process in the 'European current affairs' class, as well as getting students started on documentary research into European affairs.
