Europe Week 25 August – 1 September, 2023 KU Leuven, Belgium (via ZOOM) |
The Euro-Asia Summer School Series has been set up by the Leuven Centre for Global Governance Studies of the KU Leuven in cooperation with the Seoul National University and Hitotsubashi University for the benefit of the students of all three partners since 2009. The Summer School brings together a broad range of senior experts on Asia, the European Union and global governance to teach and interact with 30 students from all over the world during two-weeks.
This exceptional program offers students a multitude of lectures on Euro-Asia relations, opportunities for global student interaction, the chance to explore Korea and Japan during Asian Week, and even includes financial support.
The main goal of the summer school is to examine and compare how these major issues are being looked at both in the EU and in Asia. In this regard, the goal of this summer school is twofold: First, it explores how global challenges have fostered regional responses and how perceptions of regional integration processes in the EU and East Asia have changed. Second, the summer school examines the growing interdependence between the EU and East Asia, the proliferation of bilateral agreements between the EU and some of the Asian countries concerned, and their close interactions in multilateral fora in order to deal with recurring global challenges.
For the participants in the Summer School, a certificate of Seoul National University / Hitotsubashi University and the Leuven Centre for Global Governance Studies will be awarded. |

EU Local Program KU Leuven, Brussels, Strasbourg, Luxembourg | SNU in the EU program has been established to enhance the global competencies of Undergraduate students and deepen their understanding of European Union. Unlike most traditional programs that were designed around specific cities and language education, the SNU in the EU program is an intriguing initiative based on examining the characteristics of the multi-tiered governance of the EU’s institutions, in collaboration with KU Leuven.
Students participating in the program study the history, structure, evolution of EU’s institutions, as well as diplomatic and security issues through pre-program. In addition, they prepare presentations on what they’ve learned throughout entire program.
Subsequently, they visit major EU institutions located in various cities such as Brussels in Belgium, Strasbourg in France, and Luxembourg, to enhance their learning and supplement their presentation content. These institutions include NATO, Council of EU, EEAS, European Commission, European Parliament, and European Court of Justice.
Participating students earn three credits based on their attendance and class attitude in pre and local lectures, and their final presentation. |
