PS 1349 Transatlantic Governance and Policy - 3 Credits
MAY 5-23, 2024

Students will be introduced to the history and primary policy areas of the United States’
relationship with Europe while participating in site visits to think tanks and government
organizations in both Washington, DC and Brussels, Belgium. Site visits will include the US
Department of State, the European Parliament, the US Dept of Defense, and NATO.

The annual Brussels-Lux Study Tour is a week-long opportunity for educators across the U.S. to learn more about the European Union. With funding from the EU Delegation and the U.S. Department of Education, K-12 educators and faculty teaching at community colleges and minority-serving institutions (Title III- or Title V-eligible) are able to gain first-hand knowledge and experiences to further their understanding of Europe and the European Union. Visits to EU institutions and other organizations provide an inside look at the issues facing Europe and the EU.
