The two central building blocks of this major are the functioning of the EU governance system and EU policies. Students concentrate on EU policies of critical importance for social and economic progress in the EU, such as the internal market and competition policy, the Eurozone’s macroeconomic policies, security, energy, environment, and social policies.

Natolin Nature Reserve

The Natolin nature reserve borders two districts of Warsaw: Ursynów and Wilanów.  It covers 105 hectares out of 120 hectares that constitute the Natolin palace and park estate. The protected area is covered with an old growth oak-hornbeam forest, which in some places transitions into a wetland and riparian woodland. Remnants of the vast Masovian primeval forests, flourishing as late as the Middle Ages, have survived in the Natolin reserve.

The Natolin campus with its historic Palace and 120-hectare park is probably one of the most beautiful student campuses in Europe.
