With the European Online Academy, the Centre international de formation européenne in cooperation with the Jean Monnet Chair of the University of Cologne organises the Certificate (one-year) and Master in EU Studies Online (two-year). This programme is supported by the European Union.
Through a combination of e-learning and concentrated face-to-face-learning phases (at weekends mainly in Berlin, Barcelona, Brussels, Istanbul and Budapest) the European Online Academy allows the participants to deepen and to supplement their knowledge of the EU integration process.
Both programmes offer an accurate blend of theoretical and practical knowledge. In the first year participants gain an enhanced knowledge of recent developments in the European integration process. After having successfully completed the first year, the participants obtain the Certificate in EU Studies Online (30 ECTS). In order to specialise in one of the core subjects (Political Science, Economics and EU Law), the participants may join the second year of the Master programme – whereby the general approach to the issues and tasks is an interdisciplinary one. After having submitted and defended a Master thesis they are awarded the Master in EU Studies Online (60 ECTS).
Deadline for the online application is 5 September 2012. A limited number of scholarships are awarded to particularly qualified candidates to cover part of the fee.
