JEAN MONNET EUROPEAN MODULE

Instruments

A series of initiatives organised within the Module framework aims at collecting opinions from experts and scholars on these subjects, by taking into account both the Western and the Russian points of view as well as favoring debate and the comparison of different stances.
Other than traditional lectures, Module teaching activities include seminars and tutorials, in which wide space is given to debate and collective discussion of students' papers. The interaction between teaching staff and students, and among students themselves, is strongly supported in order to favor formal as well as non formal learning methods.

Goals

Activities implemented within the framework of this Jean Monnet Module aim at providing students and young professionals with skills as well as specialised knowledge related to the European Union’s purposes, functions and future perspectives, which will prove to be useful in their later educational and professional activities. The central issue of the EU Eastern relations is examined under many different points of view, so to prepare students for numerous postgraduate studies and careers. Addressed themes - from security to trade and economic cooperation, from labour/capital mobility to energy supplies and access to Eastern markets - are currently exerting a major weight on the future political, social and economic perspectives of the EU. The study of the EU Eastern relations therefore provides a key knowledge in several postgraduate studies and careers, as well as in any professional field involving interaction with the Eastern neighbours, such as the energy industry, the internationalisation of SME, the cooperation among intellectuals and medias as well as more general social and educational exchanges.
