European studies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
European studies is a field of study offered by many academic colleges and universities that focuses on the current development of European integration. It basically consists of a combination of several subjects, including European history, European law, economics and sociology. Most universities expand the subject to cover aspects that encompass Europe but not necessarily European integration, for example: European culture, European literature and European languages.
The study is a combination of humanities and social sciences. Disciplines used:
- Cultural studies
- Economics
- European languages
- Geography
- History
- Law
- Linguistics
- Literature
- Public administration
- Political science
- Sociology
It is taught, for example, at the University of Münster in Germany, at the University of Karlsruhe in Germany; at the University of Coimbra and University of Lisbon in Portugal; at the University of Amsterdam, University of Twente and Universiteit Maastricht in the Netherlands; at Sofia University and Rousse University in Bulgaria; at Hong Kong Baptist University in Hong Kong; at Royal Holloway, University of London and the University of Bath in the United Kingdom; at the University of Delaware in the United States; and at the College of Europe in Belgium and Poland.
