Advanced Master in EU Interdisciplinary Studies (shift schedule)
UCLouvain (Université catholique de Louvain)
Information last verified July 2026
Program Overview
The advanced master's degree in EU interdisciplinary studies is an academic programme organised jointly by the Institute for European Studies Saint-Louis - Bruxelles and the Interfaculty School for European Studies. It is an evening programme which takes place over one year and is aimed at students who already have a university degree and for those who are already in the workforce. It allows the acquisition or reinforcement of expertise in the field of European affairs. The programme is mainly a distance learning programme. Synchronous classes take place during the evening, allowing students to combine their studies with a professional activity. Students meet 3 times a year (in September, February and May) for 4 to 5 days on the Saint-Louis Bruxelles campus for seminars, group learning activities and visits and meetings related to European affairs.
Career Opportunities
The programme is demanding both in terms of the in-depth nature of the courses and the extent of knowledge it provides in all aspects of European integration, including reflective and critical dimensions. The master's degree therefore prepares students for professions which have a European dimension in the fields of public administration – European, national, regional and local – the representation of interests, consultancy and research. It also enables professional integration in the economic and social sectors where European expertise is required.
Program Curriculum
This programme offers: • a multidisciplinary approach to the challenges of European integration; • specialised courses led by researchers in these fields, combined with meetings with practitioners and learning activities in the field; • adaptations for those in the workforce; • the possibility to take distance learning courses, regardless of where a student lives.
Admission Requirements
This advanced master's degree (one-year evening programme, mostly distance learning) is for students who: • have a master's degree or equivalent; • would like to further their knowledge of European Union law and policies; • work and would like to acquire expertise in European affairs; • would like to meet people who work for and around the European institutions; • would like to play an active role in their own education, in particular by writing assignments and preparing oral presentations on European topics which interest them; • are looking for a course (online and evening classes) which is compatible with a professional activity but also offers 'immersion' time in Brussels.
