MAGES is a professional, interdisciplinary MA program that offers students with strong foreign language skills and a deep affinity for Europe the opportunity to craft unique thematic or regional concentrations for their graduate studies.Graduates pursue a wide variety of careers in the government, non-governmental and nonprofit organizations, and the private sector. For students or recent graduates who have interests in transatlantic relations and international affairs, this program could be an ideal complement to their bachelor’s studies.

(Note that despite the degree’s name, German language skills are not a requirement of the program. This is a Master’s in European Studies. Competence in any European language other than English is a qualification for the program.)
