Bachelor in European studies

Tuition costs 4,673 USD per year.

The bachelor's programme in European Studies at Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland, is taught in English over three years, with yearly tuition of 4,000 EUR. The interdisciplinary programme aims to give students a fundamental understanding of the relationships between the various sub-disciplines of European Studies, including law, political science, economics, history, social sciences and cultural studies. Students gain core knowledge of European politics, culture and society, while the programme also emphasises Europe's role within a wider global framework. Graduates come away with an understanding of the principal traditional and contemporary trends in European society, culture, politics and economy. The bachelor's degree also serves as a foundation for continuing academic study at graduate and postgraduate level, for students who wish to specialise further in a related field. Graduates are prepared to find employment in public administration, national and international institutions and organisations, EU institutions, non-governmental organisations, international companies, cultural institutions, mass media and publishing. Jagiellonian University, one of Poland's oldest and most established universities, brings together expertise from law, political science, economics, history and cultural studies to deliver this interdisciplinary programme. The combination of disciplines suits students who want a broad social science and humanities foundation rather than a narrowly specialised technical degree, and who are drawn to careers that require an understanding of Europe's political, legal, economic and cultural systems together, rather than any single one in isolation. The programme's Krakow location places students at one of Central Europe's major academic centres, within an established university that has trained generations of European Studies graduates.
