The course aims to provide an advanced understanding of institutional factors of EU membership and of the political system and decision-making processes of the EU itself. The students should gain broad understanding of these issues by familiarising themselves with current institutional design and by learning to apply theoretical concepts on specific questions and cases. The students should also learn to search for specific documents in European institutions databases.
