College of Europe
College of Europe, Dijver 11, B-8000 Brugge, Belgium, Bruges
4.41 / 5 based on 48 reviews.
Description:
The College of Europe is a unique and innovative postgraduate institute specialising in European education and training, which it has been pioneering at its Bruges campus since 1949, and since 1994 also at its campus at Natolin Warsaw. Intensive programmes are offered in European integration issues, with particular emphasis on law, economics, political and social sciences. At Natolin issues relating to economic, legal and political transition and the accession of the countries of Central Europe to the European Union receive special attention. The college's student body and teaching staff reflect, in a truly European microcosm, the continent's cultural diversity.
