EU Studies Fair 2009
Attending as a visitor is free of charge and simply requires pre-registration online.
On 7 February 2009, European Voice will host our 10th annual EU Studies Fair in Brussels. It is a one-day fair and workshop bringing together prospective students, universities and academic institutions offering postgraduate programmes in EU and International Relations, Business and Law. Every year around 700 visitors come to meet with over 50 of Europe's leading academic institutions and EU institutions - European Personel Selection Office (EPSO), EU Publication Office and Jean Monnet Action.
In 2000 European Voice launched the first EU Studies Fair which consisted of approximately 25 European universities and 200 visitors. Throughout the past nine years, the event has established a strong reputation for providing the opportunity for ambitious students and young professionals to connect with leading academic institutions.
A Unique Event
For universities, this fair is an unrivalled opportunity to promote their programmes – both for medium- and long-term prospects. Every year visitors from throughout Europe come to meet academic institutions for a full-day event that includes practical seminars on further studies and careers within EU institutions.
A Highly Focused Audience
Now in its tenth year the EU Studies Fair has established itself as a unique event focusing on postgraduate study in the fields of politics, business and law. It attracts multilingual, ambitious students and young professionals who have a direct interest in further study and careers in these fields.
A Great Location for a Growing Event
The Fair will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel (Rogier), right in the heart of Brussels, with excellent public transport connections – metro, tram, bus and only 15 minutes from the international train station (Eurostar & Thalys terminal).
