Course Summary

Are you curious about the evolving relations between market and state in Europe? Do you want to understand how the process of European integration affects these relations and the continent's place in the global economy? Do you wonder what this implies for the green transition, industrial policy and inequality? If so, our Political Economy of Europe in the World programme provides a historically grounded, multidisciplinary analysis of these questions.

Join us and learn from top academics and policy experts in Europe and beyond. The programme offers core courses covering the foundations of political economy and specialist courses that explore a variety of relevant themes, including monetary integration, welfare states and labour markets, finance, varieties of capitalism, European policymaking and governance, and global trade.

The programme also offers additional optional courses on identity, ethnicity, society and uses some of those to understand some of Europe’s regions. The European Institute hosts a vibrant programme of events, with guest lectures from leaders in business, politics, and European civil society.

Take your understanding of European political economy to the next level. Apply now to the programme and equip yourself with the tools you need to thrive in today's globalised economy.

Graduate destinations:
Former graduates pursue successful careers in politics, business, diplomacy, consultancy and journalism, and in international organisations and financial institutions. Students from this programme are actively headhunted by companies and international organisations working in the region.
