The European Union has the world´s largest GDP, the world´s third largest population, and is among the highest ranking in the world for health, education and living conditions. Through NYU Florence´s Spring 2016 The EU in Focus series, students will learn about what the EU is, how it works and its role as an international actor. Students who participate in a working group linked to the series will develop a deeper understanding of how EU policy-making works through the study of a specific policy area.
Interested students must attend the introductory meeting on February 1 at 6:00 pm at Villa Sassetti. Students can apply to be part of the working group through February 7, 2016 by emailinglapietra.dialogues@nyu.edu explaining why they would like to participate and how it would enhance their studies at NYU Florence.
For more information write to Adriano Iaria at ai40@nyu.edu.
