The programme draws on the established expertise in European politics, comparative politics, and international politics in the Department of Politics, and the established expertise in European public law and European legal studies in the School of Law. You will be able to select options from other departments within the Faculty of Law, Business & Social Sciences, including Central & East European Studies, Social & Economic History, Economics and Sociology.
