European Studies • Geo-Information Science & Earth Observation

Our one-year Master’s in (Global and) European Studies will give you the expertise you need to operate in the complex, fascinating environment called Europe, in which many government levels and stakeholders convene. You can combine this Master’s with a Master’s in Comparative Public Governance at the German University of Münster and obtain a double degree. This option takes two years.

Brussels is not the only place in need of experts who understand Europe and the global world. National governments, private firms, the non-profit sector and NGOs all require professionals who know how Europe operates, both internally and globally. In this programme, you will study the interactions between national, European and international bodies, and how they respond to complex global challenges. If you want to prepare yourself for helping Europe to balance technological advances with human values, this programme is the place to do it.

GEO-INFORMATION SCIENCE & EARTH OBSERVATION

Imagine deploying drones to assess disaster damage and to gather data that can be instantly used to take action. Imagine helping farmers in drought prone areas to predict crop yield or taking augmented reality to a level where it could actually help solve problems in the real world. These are just a few of the many areas you can enter with geo-information science and earth observation.

From traditional map-making to creating modern data-driven solutions, this field offers an incredible variety of opportunities. It has been identified as one of the three fastest growing industries of the 21st century. Would you like to be at the forefront of this growth wave? Are you looking for a first-rate master’s that will unlock your future in multiple ways? Does the prospect of living and studying in an international environment appeal to you? Then ITC at the University of Twente could be just the ticket. This programme will give you a broad overview of the most relevant topics in the field and offer plenty of room for specialisation. After graduation, you will almost literally be able to be what you want to be.
