Profile
The European Union as a supranational political entity beyond nation states poses new challenges to the protection of nature, the regulation of labour and money as basic dimensions of integration. These challenges result from the obstacles to internal integration and social cohesion within Europe as well as Europe’s role in an increasingly multipolar and economically globalised world. The acuteness of these challenges has become obvious during the current multiple crises within the EU. The masters programme aims to provide students with an understanding of those challenges and of the policy mechanisms and policies at the European level which address the issues. It is a special profile of this programme that it has a strong focus on political economy.The first semester is built around mandatory courses; three of these courses concentrate on those dimensions of economic, political and social integration which historically were a matter of nation states but today increasingly are regulated on a European level: environment and energy, labour and social reproduction as well as money and trade. In the second semester students participate in a project seminar focusing in detail on current issues of European integration. In addition they will choose from a wide range of electives. The third semester is reserved for researching and preparing the thesis. Classes are conducted in a combined lecture/seminar format where students are expected to play an active part.
