Europe is facing significant challenges in recent years. Alongside the just-ended global pandemic and the recent biggest military conflict on the subcontinent since World War II, defining a new concept of Europe will be a significant issue. The Joint Masterʼs programme in European studies provides the opportunity to find the best solutions through an interdisciplinary approach. This is a great opportunity to study Europe with lecturers from the four forefront European universities. During the first term, each student will study at one of the participating universities (chosen Entrance University), and during the second and/or third term, at a different participating university: • University of Granada (Spain) • Leipzig University (Germany) • University of Graz (Austria) • Vilnius University (Lithuania) Physical mobility is greatly encouraged but is not compulsory in this programme. Preference is given to candidates who choose a physical mobility track within their application. Applicants can indicate a preference for the study places in the application. However, the selection committee makes the final decision on the mobility track with respect to the applicantʼs preference, qualifications, and specialization.
