CIVIS course “EU Decision making and its institutions: discover the heart of Brussels”

3 February - 9 June 2025 / Apply by: 31 October 2024

This CIVIS course is a Blended Intensive Programme (BIP): a new format of Erasmus+ mobility which combines online teaching with a short trip to another campus to learn alongside students and professors across Europe. 
Prof. Dr. Gabriele Abels, Chair for Comparative Politics and European Integration (University of Tübingen), composes the teaching team for this course.
 

This project, which takes place between 3 February and 9 June 2025, aims to bring CIVIS university students to Brussels via a BIP designed around the EU institutions, with the objective of working together on some of the most important issues facing the EU today.  Registration runs until October 31, 2024.

The course will be in a hybrid format. The physical mobility part will be running from 19 to 23 May 2025 in Brussels, Belgium. The participants will visit 4 separate EU institutions, listen to speakers, role play in political groups, present opinions, questions and advice as youth consultants, and engage in Q&A-Sessions with staff and members of each institution. The virtual part of the course will be held between 3 February - 9 June 2025. The students will work in small groups to develop positions on policy issues, create presentations and formulate questions for EU policymakers, and provide advice for specific EU institutions.
