Start of the second term in Rome!
All roads lead to Rome! At least, this is where the students of the Executive Master in EU Studies gathered this weekend to mark the beginning of the second term.
On Friday morning, we met with Member of Parliament Giulia Pastorella for an engaging discussion on the Italian political system. She shared valuable insights into her role, with particular attention to current issues such as the upcoming referendum on the reform of the Italian justice system. The afternoon continued with the course Political Economy of Energy Transitions, introduced by François Bafoil, and concluded with a lecture and discussion led by Gianluca Sgueo on the challenges the EU faces in communicating with its citizens.
Saturday morning was dedicated to European Law and the Internal Market with Edgar Lenski, followed in the afternoon by The EU in World Politics with Robert Kissack.
The final course introduction was delivered by Jacques Le Cacheux on the Economic Dimension of EU Integration. We warmly thank our experts and speakers for their insightful contributions and our students for their strong commitment and active participation.
We wish them every success and plenty of energy for the second term, and we look forward to accompanying them along their study path until our third gathering in April in Budapest.
