Contribution pédagogique du cours au programme
Aucune contribution pédagogique associé à ce cours pour ce programme.Descriptif
The course offers an introduction to the European Union, its main institutions and aspects of the EU decision-making process; and an overview of the European economic integration process and impact on business, including the consequences of Brexit. Strasbourg is a unique place to learn about the EU as it is a strong symbol of the Franco-German reconciliation after WW2 and it is where the first steps of the European integration took place. Today, it is home of the European Parliament, where in practical terms students will spend some time in the frame of this course. The pedagogical objectives are that students become better acquainted with the European Union’s idea, rationale, and functioning; aware of the impact of EU economic integration on business; and that they experience “uncommon situations” where they will be playing as if they were one of the members of the European Parliament during a role play.Organisation pédagogique
