Prof. Cabestan, Director General of EUAP and the scholarship awardee, Jefferson Yen Hao

He is now studying Master of Arts in EU International Relations & Diplomacy Studies at the College of Europe, one of our partner institutes based in Bruges, Belgium. The College has an extensive reputation in the field of European studies and the training of “an elite of young executives for Europe”. The reason of Jefferson’s choice is, as he puts it “The European Project was something I was fascinated with because it seemed so unique and my passions were in international relations so it seemed almost natural for me to choose this master.” The courses are bilingually in English and French.
