European Union Studies (MA)
Pre-master's
The pre-master’s programme helps students remove deficiencies to meet the admission requirements to the International Relations: European Union Studies specialisation.
If you have one of the following backgrounds you can apply to the pre-master:
- You have a bachelor’s degree from a university of applied science (HBO), in the field of economics, history, political science (and international relations), law or European Studies; or,
- You have an academic bachelor’s degree from a research university, but you do not meet the entry requirements. That is to say, if you did finalise a bachelor in the field of social sciences, humanities, law or economics but did not obtain at least 30 EC worth of courses relevant for the MA European Union Studies;
- If you have obtained an academic Bachelor’s degree from a research university, in a different field but you do not meet the entry requirements mentioned above, you are advised to contact the Coordinator of Studies.
The language requirements for a pre-master's programme are identical to the language requirements for the master's programme for which admission has been requested. These requirements must be met before the start of the premaster.
Start date
Please note that the programme has a September intake only.
