Welcome to the Website of the Masters Programme "Studies in European Societies"!

The Faculty of Sociology of St. Petersburg State University in cooperation with Bielefeld University (Germany) offers a two-year multidisciplinary Masters programme that provides students with a thorough understanding of European societies.

The programme is designed for highly motivated students who want to pursue a career in the developing European-Russian relations and get executive positions in political agencies, non-profit organisations or private businesses, whether on the local, national or international level. It equips future decision makers with the scientific knowledge and practical experience they will need to advance European-Russian relations.

It is supported by the Centre for German and European Studies (Zentrum fuer Deutschland- und Europastudien, ZDES) and co-financed by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
