MPM/MGPP Summer Excursion 2006 – Governing Europe – September 18 through 22, 2006 Brussels, Belgium

This is our Excursion in Brussels, Belgium during Summer time. Our Program organized an excursion to Brussels for one week in order to make students familiar with the unique supranational institution in Europe, the European Union. Participants will be provided with first-hand information about the work of diverse European institutions in Brussels, e.g. the European Commission, the Council of the EU and the European Parliament. The program will be completed by visits at representations of Brandenburg and lobby organizations. The primary focus is to equip students with a basic understanding of the machinery of European governance, as well as current discussions on European Politics, for example environmental policy.
