  • To enhance the ability of students to think analytically, critically, reflectively and comparatively on EU policies, through classroom teaching, interactive learning, individual research, group research and oral presentations
  • To strengthen the problem solving ability of students in being able to deconstruct, conceptualise and reconstruct key EU policies, given a robust practical dimension by virtue of an internship in the EU policy-making domain
