Bachelor of Arts in European Studies

The degree offers a very broad entrance into the worlds of Humanities, Languages and Social Sciences. Brexit will mean more direct interaction with the EU. An understanding of Europe requires knowledge of its historical origins, of its economic, legal and societal aspects, and of its political institutions. The BA in European Studies develops knowledge and understanding of all of these areas linking them with knowledge of the cultures and languages of key member states. The University of Limerick has long led the way in Ireland in this field, with the result that this degree is one of the longest established European Studies degree programmes in Europe.
