The Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's Programme "Euroculture - Society, politics and culture in a global context" is partly financed by the European Commission is a transdisciplinary, international and inter-university project, in which various disciplines, eight well-known European and four non-EU universities participate. Its aim is to prepare graduates from Europe and third-countries for professions and research areas in which knowledge of present-day Europe and European Union institutions are of relevance.

The Programme was established in 1998 to focus on regional, national and supranational dimensions of the European democratic development in an interdisciplinary manner.
As a term, “Euroculture” reflects a wide range of self´-understandings across societies, social groups, and individuals in, from, within, and beyond Europe. It pays special attention to migration, transcultural exchanges, and the increasing mobility of its population.
What makes The Euroculture Programme stand out from many other European Regional Studies is not only its multidisciplinary curriculum, but also the flexibility and the mandatory mobility it offers to its students to provide them with various perspectives.

Euroculture pays special attention to the increasing mobility of its citizens, to migration and transcultural exchanges. Because of the multidisciplinary studies approach, the Euroculture programme stands out from many other European Regional Studies programmes. Ever since the establishment of the Programme, Euroculture was used as a concept to reflect in an interdisciplinary way on the many different expressions and manifestations of self-understandings of societies, social groups and individuals of, about, within and beyond Europe.

In the latest survey, 90% of our graduates have stated that their overall experience of the programme was positive, very positive, or great. Mainly students were happy about the mobility, interdisciplinary programme, and the community feeling within Euroculture. Things like good coordination and availability of teaching staff, as well as flexibility to choose your track were also mentioned as advantages of Euroculture.

From 2011 until 2018, students of 56 different nationalities have studied Euroculture. Our students come from all over the world, with German, Dutch, Italian, and French students being the majority among the EU students; and China and the USA leading in numbers of non-EU students.

In the past 6 Euroculture editions, our students have carried out their work placements in 41 different countries, further stressing the international character of the programme. Belgium is a popular -->destination of course, as many students gravitate towards Brussels and the European institutions there (together with many NGO's and governmental agencies that have representations in the European capital). But Euroculture students do not stay bound to Brussels, and have been able to find placements from Bosnia to Mongolia, and from the Philippines to Chile..
