The College of Europe and the European University Institute are sister institutions; we work in postgraduate and post-doctorate education, with a specific mandate 'to foster the advancement of learning in fields which are of particular interest for the development of Europe, especially its culture, history, law, economics and institutions' and to 'develop interdisciplinary research programmes on the major issues confronting contemporary European society, including matters relating to the construction of Europe' (Convention establishing the EUI). We are engaged in educating the next generation of scholars and practitioners and in our research programmes we bring together scholars from all over Europe and the world in our unique international and cross-disciplinary environments. From this perspective, we aim to initiate and stimulate a debate among institutions of higher education over the current challenges facing the study of Europe, ranging from its place within university curricula to the funding drivers for research, from the risks and benefits of cross-disciplinarity to the historical turn in EU studies.

Course Syllabus: Europeanization in the EU's Member States, BA Political Science (Winter 2015)
The European Union is characterized by diversity of its 28 member states. This seminar will focus on if and how these countries are affected by the Europeanization process. The questions to be addressed include -what are the mechanisms of Europeanization, has Europeanization facilitated convergence and which factors explain the persistence of established institutional traditions.
The course examines the relationship between the EU and its member states. While other courses address the construction of Europe, EU decision making and 'Europeanization' (i.e. the domestic impact of EU action), this course focuses on the interaction between the EU on the one hand and institutions, interests and citizens in the member states on the other. It investigates how relations between the EU and the member states have been theorized, considers the place of 'Europe' in narratives of national identity, and examines how national actors engage with and view the EU. It looks at member states large and small, old and new, east and west, and north and south.
