CEU’s international curriculum helps you develop a critical understanding of the challenges contemporary political communities and their citizens face. The university moves across borders and disciplines to give you a comparative perspective and hands-on, transferable skills. To gain an even more comprehensive picture, you can join cross-country research projects and apply for research grants and travel funds to attend conferences.
The program comes in two formats, with the one-year version offering a more intensive study experience. The two-year version is an ideal stepping stone for PhD research and training, thanks to a more extensive research period. Students with three-year bachelor’s degrees in the social sciences and related disciplines are eligible to apply for the two-year program, while candidates with four years of university studies can opt for the one-year program.
