Program details

Overview

The Master in European Governance is a unique double-degree programme offered in partnership with Masaryk University (Brno, Czech Republic), the University of Konstanz (Germany) and University College Dublin (Ireland). As a student you will study and live in two different European locations. This means that during the first year of the master, you  study at one of the partner universities (Masaryk University Brno, University of Konstanz, University College Dublin). The second year all students will come to Utrecht. This allows you to study European governance from two different perspectives in the context of a unique personal experience. 

In the European Governance programme, you will:

  • Obtain two Master's degrees from highly reputed universities.
  • Become a trained professional with the skills to apply theory to real-life challenges.
  • Analyse issues of European governance from different angles, involving economics, law, and public administration.
  • Study in two different cities and countries, where you will have a unique opportunity to see various levels of government at work in two different contexts.
  • Write a final thesis and do an internship within an organisation that deals with issues of European governance.
