Your future

As a graduate of the MA ES, you will be well-prepared for a career in the public sector, international organisations, non-govermental organisations, research institutions or the private sector.

Throughout the year, career-related events will be held to help you professionalise your CV, develop interview skills, etc. You will also meet our alumni who are already working in Brussels and national capitals. Although the master’s programme has a strong European focus, the international dimension also plays a significant role. With your all-round grasp of Europe’s place in the world, as well as experience in international teams and practical project work, you can look for work in:

  • diplomatic services and international organisations
  • non-governmental organisations and think tanks
  • regional, national or European administration and governance
  • international journalism
  • academia and research

Public Affairs Assistant Sky, Brussels

“Aside from the flexibility, the master's program is also a very social program. As I spoke with cohorts before and after me, I realized how unique it is to form a close bond with others in the master's. This helps share job openings, tips for recruitment and provides a wide network for a greater chance of recruitment.”
