The European Union plays a growing role in shaping policies and legislation. Its influence extends across nearly all domains, from security and economic strategies to human rights and environmental protection. To address this, Dublin City University has introduced the Masters in European Law and Policy, a forward-thinking program designed to prepare graduates for tackling contemporary issues such as Brexit, climate action, and post-pandemic recovery. Students will gain a thorough understanding of the EU's legislative framework and institutions, alongside essential public policy development and evaluation skills. Key courses feature the groundbreaking Law & Politics of Brexit, unique in Ireland, alongside electives covering critical areas like environmental policy, EU financial regulations, and foreign affairs. The program emphasizes blending legal expertise with policy insights, examining how laws both influence and execute policy objectives.
This master's program merges legal and policy perspectives, providing students with dual competencies in both areas. It offers a solid foundation in EU law and policy while enabling specialization through elective courses and dissertation research.
