The integration process launched by the European Union is the most relevant historical event that has taken place in Europe over the last fifty years. Europe is gradually moving towards the transfer of parcels of state sovereignty to the EU. Thus, as spectators, we are observing and, as citizens, we are immersed in a slow but unstoppable movement to transform its political, economic, legal, cultural and social physiognomy. What are the aims of the EU? How is its progress structured institutionally? What are the principles guiding its actions and what are the political, economic and legal repercussions of the development of the internal market and the rest of the EU's policies for Catalonia and Spain? The postgraduate course in European Union studies attempts to provide students with a series of multidisciplinary instruments for the understanding, analysis and evaluation of all these elements explaining the Europe of today and determining the Europe of the future.

 

The EU is a further administrative and political level, above that of local, regional and state administrations. The Union legislates, implements budget headings and applies its own law in judicial contexts. Its current relevance can be observed in its decisive impact on the professional lives of any public or private working environment.
