Structure of the Programme

1st Semester

The first semester offers classes in the "Core Fields of Society, Politics and Culture". A tailor-made soft-skills scheme, "Eurocompetence I-III", runs through the four semesters and equips students with the competences they need to successfully complete the Master and qualify for the job market.

2nd Semester

The second semester includes a Research and a Methodology Seminar, as well as a Summer School ("Intensive Programme"), which is hosted in a rotating manner by one of the European partners.

3rd Semester

In the third semester, students have the choice of doing an internship at a placement of their choosing or a Research Track at a European University or one of the non-European partners.

4th Semester

The fourth semester is studied either at the university of the first or the second semester. In a "Thesis Seminar", students are supported in researching and writing their Master Thesis. Eurocompetence III helps students to transition from the Master to the job market or their further studies.
