The aim of the program is to provide students with an exciting opportunity to deepen their own expertise by enhancing their knowledge of changing European Union (EU) politics and by exchanging ideas with academics, EU policy practitioners and fellow students from different cultural environments. The program combines intensive academic courses with cultural, social, and recreational opportunities.
