Description

The Edinburgh Europa Institute is a multi-disciplinary research centre within the University of Edinburgh, devoted to the study of the governance, institutions, law and policies of the European Union, and of Europe more broadly. Its purpose is to facilitate academic analysis, teaching and debate of the history and processes of European integration, with specific reference to the policies and institutions of the European Union and its member states.

The institute brings together world-class scholars across many aspects of European integration and supports a vibrant community of researchers and students. The collective impact of our work in these areas ensures that the Europa Institute occupies a central and strategic position in national and international networks of scholars working on the EU. It provides a unique environment in Scotland’s capital to explore the key issues facing Europe today.
