A DEGREE WITHOUT BORDERS

STUDY IN EUROPE, THE MIDDLE EAST, AND THE UNITED STATES


Established in 1998, this interdisciplinary, two-year MA program focuses on contemporary Europe and the transatlantic relationship. Students learn about EU institutions, European integration, and comparative welfare states. They focus on the pressing issues Europe faces today such as security, immigration, climate change, and economic disparity. TAM educates students by way of classroom and experiential learning environments. We train individuals in the methods of social-science critical inquiry and cultural adaptability. We remain committed to and engaged with the alumni community as our graduates pursue many different types of goals in international diplomacy, business, education, politics, law, and research.

Two Degree Paths

Dual Degree


Students receive one degree in Political Science from UNC-Chapel Hill, and one degree from a partner university, with the opportunity to specialize in climate policy.

Single-degree Alternative


Students receive one degree in Political Science from UNC-Chapel Hill, spending at least one semester at UNC-Chapel Hill, and up to three semesters abroad at one or more European partner sites, with the option of specializing in German-Turkish Studies.
