Master of Arts in European and Mediterranean Studies

New York University

The Master of Arts program in European and Mediterranean studies is an inter-disciplinary program in the social sciences and humanities designed to prepare students for professions requiring an advanced understanding of Europe and/or Europe's relation with the wider Mediterranean region. The program draws upon the established resources of existing country programs in French studies, Italian studies, and Hellenic studies, as well as the disciplinary programs, and also offers courses of its own. The degree may be completed in 12 months - that is, fall semester, spring semester, and summer semester (summer session I & II). Students are encouraged to undertake research or an internship in Europe, and may also use one of NYU's study-abroad sites in Europe as a base for their research. The Center for European and Mediterranean Studies' MA in European and Mediterranean Studies and other joint-degree and certificate programs provide highly individualized, interdisciplinary studies in the social sciences and humanities. The flexible degree requirements allow students to tailor their studies according to their interests across a range of disciplines, including history political science cultural studies anthropology art history and French, Italian, German, Irish, the Mediterranean, and other area studies. In addition to CEMS' courses, students are encouraged to take courses at other GSAS departments and NYU schools.
