Les + de la formation
Academic training in English: professors from the Institute for European Studies, the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford and the University of Waseda provide a diverse, international faculty for this Master.
Academic reputation: Since 1964, students benefit from the expertise of an international team of renowned researchers and academics and from the label of the Institute for European Studies of the ULB.
Interdisciplinary and timely knowledge: this program offers relevant academic interdisciplinary knowledge in the field of EU studies that takes into account recent evolutions in EU and global governance.
Expertise: Students benefit from the opportunity to acquire specialized and advanced expertise in key policies at the core of the integration process, including ‘Economic Governance and Policies in Europe’, ‘Migrations, rights and policies in Europe’ and ‘EU integration, Regionalism and Global Governance’.
The program brings together academics as well as senior practitioners and students from a variety of European and non-European countries.
Internship is compulsory. The Institute organises a unique course on career development that helps students to develop a professional project and network.
In addition, the IEE-ULB organises a wide range of activities including networking sessions and mentoring opportunities with Alumni.
AlumnIEE network: 7500 graduates from our programs since 1964 constitute our best resource. Those 7500 alumni can testify of the IEE-ULB’s academic quality, its involvement in their career development, the international profile of its world-class academics and researchers and the opportunities its privileged location provides.
Proximity with the centres of decision-making: The Institute is located at less than 10 km from the core of the decision-making power of the EU institutions. Thanks to the experts and professionals involved in the IEE’s outreach activities, the Institute is also connected to a wide range of institutions and organisations in Brussels.
Brussels is the headquarters to the principal European institutions, and the IEE-ULB has developed close contacts with its main stakeholders. This allows us to collaborate closely with European, political decision-makers in our teaching, research and public debate activities, while allowing students to add value to their studies through a potential internship in the very institutions they are studying.
Genuine source of academic expertise for professionals of the sector, the IEE-ULB is at the centre of high-level debate on the future of the EU. The IEE-ULB hosts more than thirty conferences and events every year. Our students thus benefit from the opportunity to participate in open public dialogue with key actors on the European arena.

Programme
This advanced program brings together one core module (25 credits), three elective tracks (20 credits) as well as the professionalization modulemobility at the University of Waseda (15 credits).
The core module (25 credits) includes a set of courses that deal with fundamental topics in EU studies, including: EU law, decision-making at the EU level, history of European integration and European economic governance. These courses provide the students with the necessary academic knowledge to engage in the elective courses and modules. During this core module, students also have the opportunity to follow a course with a guest professor from the University of Oxford or the University of Cambridge.
Depending on their needs and professional ambitions, students can choose among three elective specialization tracks (20 credits each):
-
Economic Governance and Policies in the EU (module 1),
-
Migrations, Rights and Policies (module 2)
-
EU integration, Regionalism and Global Governance (module 3).
Each module follows an interdisciplinary approach, as it addresses key topics in EU studies from the perspectives of political science, law, history and economics. Professors from these disciplines interact in each module, providing a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of the EU in these three main areas.
The uniqueness of this Master program lies in its focus on career development or the mobility at the University of Waseda (15 credits). Students can chose one of the following paths:

Students have to write a final dissertation (15 credits) based on the professional experience acquired through the internship and the compulsory seminar on career development. To allow students to follow courses and devote sufficient time to their professional plan, internships can only take place from April to September (the minimum duration of the internship is 192 hours).
