EU Affairs and Business Lobbying
The EU public affairs teaching programme aims to prepare students as much as possible for a career in a public organisation with European or cross-border missions, in the public affairs division of a private corporation or in a business consultancy firm.
One key objective is to provide students with an approach to current European Union issues. The programme gives the opportunity to accurately comprehend the EU policy framework that companies must deal with when operating on the European market and to study how businesses get involved in shaping EU policy.
More broadly, this programme should instil in students an appreciation of what business-to-public institution relations stand for.
In the end, students participating in this programme can understand the role of European institutions and decision-making, better analyse and anticipate EU political, economic, and legal developments for EU-based firms, organisations, and institutions, and build a lobbying/advocacy strategy and argue defence strategies at EU and more broadly public levels.
