This is an interdisciplinary, research-based program offered by a consortium of six European universities: the University of Leipzig, University of Ghent, University of Vienna, University of Wroclaw, University of Roskilde, and LSE. This is a wide-ranging academic programme that combines global economic history, international studies, area studies, and social science approaches to the study of globalisation processes. Students will spend one of the two years of the programme at one of the partner institutes.
