Master in European Studies (MES)

Applications for the Sep 2026 intake close on Aug 31, 2026.

The Master in European Studies (MES) at the Europa-Universität Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder) offers a unique, interdisciplinary approach with teaching in four languages: German, English, French, and Polish. This multi-lingual and interdisciplinary program is structured into four central areas: culture, politics, law, and economics. The curriculum includes compulsory introductory modules such as 'Politik der Europäischen Integration, 'Europäische Wirtschaftspolitik,' and 'Europarecht.' Students can also opt for practical modules, including a four-week internship that can be extended or supplemented with participation in simulations, seminars, or workshops. The program's flexibility allows students to either specialize in one of the central areas or choose an interdisciplinary approach. Students can also participate in double master's programs with partner universities, enhancing their international profile. The Europa-Universität Viadrina's multidisciplinary approach and its location near the Polish border provide a unique environment for studying European integration, politics, and law.
