Why European Studies?
With a multilayered curriculum, many student clubs where you can practice your skills, exchange opportunities in universities across Europe, and international field trips, the European Studies major at AUBG will help you become a leading global expert in the EU affairs.
Why Liberal Arts?
Liberal Arts is not reserved for art students only. At AUBG, for example, we have a variety of majors and minors spanning from Business Administration to Computer Science, and we make sure that you get a solid understanding and in-depth knowledge in the field you choose to study. What differentiates Liberal Arts from other types of degrees, however, is that in addition to that, it gives you the freedom to explore, create, practice your skills and connect to others.
