Master of European Business (MEB)

Academic year 2008-2009 (first edition)

The Masters programme of "European Business" is an advanced master programme of second level, in English, jointly organised by the EuroSapienza Research Centre, at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Rome La Sapienza, and the European University College Brussels (EHSAL, Belgium). The Master Degree has full legal value in Italy and in the Flemish Community in Belgium.

This EU-focused Master programme offers academic and interactive hands-on training in all aspects of European policy and integration relevant to business. The Master programme develops managerial skills in an international and intercultural context by building bridges between the academic world, the EU institutions and enterprises of all sorts. As a matter of fact, this Master programme foresees the presentation in class of guest speakers' experience, numerous field trips and study visits to EU institutions and enterprises. Working out a final project work on issues related to the EU and business life will complete the preparation.

The Master programme offers the students the opportunity to go abroad and study specialised European courses both in Brussels and in Luxembourg, whose business environments offer ample opportunities to acquire the qualification and skills needed to launch a professional career in an EU-related environment.

The Master, whose attendance is obligatory, lasts two semesters, the second of which may be optionally attended in Brussels. The Master is carried out with a multidisciplinary approach and takes an advantage of the didactic and scientific competence of the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, of the EHSAL and of the IUL, as well as of stakeholders from the business, economic and financial world, and of academic and diplomatic experts in European and international matters.

At the end of the Master course, the University of Rome “La Sapienza” confers the Masters Diploma of Second Level in European Business.
