EU Studies Curriculum at the EU Borders
EU Studies Curriculum at the EU Borders

Summary/Abstract: EU Studies represent an important field of interest at educational level, plenty of scholarly work dealing with analysing the importance, but at the same time the streamlining of this field of study. Through our methodological approach, we will study the impact of EU Studies on the eastern border of the European Union, our research sample targeting 6 European countries, of which 3 are EU members and 3 are non-EU members, and a total of 15 universities. The main research directions that we will examine in the target universities will refer to the disciplines with European themes that are found in the university study programs, focusing on the nine major fields agreed by the European Commission. The research methodology will focus on the method of content analysis of official, public, digital and non-digital documents, with which we will identify a series of indicators: number of European disciplines, EU Studies Curriculum, Study Programmes, courses addressing Border Studies, and based on them, we shall make a series of interpretations. The main objective of the research, is in the first phase to carry out an evaluation of the European-themed courses that are found at the level of the 15 target universities, so that we can visualize the degree of attention that universities pay, in order to offer solutions, examples of good practice, to develop the implementation of European courses in university study programs.
