Programme overview

The analysis of differences and similarities in European cultures from a social, economic and cultural perspective comprises the core focus of the Master of European Cultural Studies. You deepen your knowledge about cultural and social theories dealing with European society at large, elements of European politics, media representation in certain states or individual nations. Thus, this particular postgraduate programme combines social sciences, anthropology, sociology and the wider humanities.

Universities conceptualise their Master of European Cultural Studies in an international manner, including a compulsory period of studies abroad. You don't only receive a great opportunity to gain an insight into a different academic perspective, you can also broaden your personal horizon.

Career prospects with a postgraduate degree in European Cultural Studies

The two-year Master of European Cultural Studies does not qualify you for a specific profession. Nevertheless, you can choose from attractive job opportunities in public relations, journalism, political or cultural institutes, NGOs, international organizations or HR and PR departments in larger enterprises.

As in most postgraduate programmes in the humanities, the admission criteria vary at most universities. Therefore, we advise you to make a selection of universities of your choice and contact them directly to learn more about admission criteria and opportunities to study abroad.
