Careers in European Studies
Where could it take you?
As a European Studies (German Pathway) BA graduate, you’ll possess a level of language skills and an understanding of culture that is sufficient for a German-speaking role. In fact, some graduates have completed placements in media companies within Europe.
You’ll also develop analytical and presentational skills that employers value, and can be applied to a number of roles.
Previous European Studies BA graduates have worked with the Foreign Office, with lobbying firms at the European Commission, in public and private agencies and think tanks, and with leading financial institutions. Many students have also undertaken work placements in the media, working for the French Newspaper Liberation, the Franco-German TV station Arte and Radio-France International. Some have worked as far afield as Bosnia and Japan.

- Trade Policy Analyst, Organisation for Economic Co-operation & Development
