Are you interested in studying the EU’s New Diplomacy in 3 different countries?
Choose the Joint Master in EU Trade and Climate Diplomacy at the Centre international de formation européenne which takes place in Rome, Berlin and Nice.
The programme is focused on how to act, reflect and participate in strategic trade and climate policy negotiations between Europe and other geopolitical powers, with a wide range of economic and digital intelligence tools.
The Master is offered by CIFE in cooperation with the LUISS School of Government in Rome.
The programme starts in Rome (October to December). Courses will give an introduction to EU Governance, focusing on the context and challenges of European Foreign Action and policy in the 21st century.
The Master continues in Berlin (January to March). Teaching will concentrate on EU Climate Diplomacy and its ambition to climate leadership in the context of the EU’s Green Deal. A study trip to a diplomatic hub such as Brussels gives insightful knowledge into EU Diplomacy and interaction with high-level lecturers, experts and diplomats.
Courses conclude in Nice (April to June). A special focus will be laid on EU Trade and Investment Diplomacy. Students will attend courses on trade diplomacy, external investment for SDGs, AI, big data and digitalised governance, and innovative forms of collaborative action. As part of their academic requirements, students will complete a final Master thesis.
