CIVICA Multi-Campus Course: The Future of Europe 2026/27

Applications are now open for LSE master's students to join the CIVICA Multi-Campus Course: 'The Future of Europe' for the Autumn Term.
Applications open from 7-25 September 2026.

If you have an interest in policy, media, or international affairs, I highly encourage you to apply. This course offers a rare opportunity to collaborate with students from top European universities, receive academic and professional guidance, and work on real-world challenges.

LSE master's students across all disciplines are invited to apply to the forthcoming CIVICA Multi-Campus Course: The Future of Europe. This extracurricular online course offers students the opportunity to collaborate with master's students across university partners in Europe to critically examine European policy challenges. This innovative online course is designed and taught jointly by a team of professors from various CIVICA universities.
CIVICA is the European University of Social Sciences, representing an alliance of ten leading European universities focusing on social sciences, humanities, business management, and public policy. LSE is an active associate member of the alliance.

The Future of Europe Multi-Campus Course explores the major challenges facing the future of Europe with particular emphasis on globalisation, democracy, innovation and digitalisation, climate change and the green transition as well as the dynamics characterising European Union policy responses in times of crisis.
Participation in this course would suit students who are interested in European International Relations, Policy, Governance and/or Media.

The Future of Europe Multi-Campus Course will be delivered online synchronously for all CIVICA students across Europe. The course consists of live online lectures and a policy paper training camp. All lectures are recorded for students who are unable to attend the live sessions.
Students will work in cross-country project teams to complete a final capstone project, supported by faculty across the alliance.
Students who successfully complete the course will receive a certificate from the CIVICA Secretariat. Additionally, high-scoring capstone project teams will be nominated for the Boroli Prize, whereby winners will be invited to attend an in-person prizegiving ceremony at Bocconi University in Milan.

LSE students who complete this course are not eligible for extra credits or ECTS.

To apply to take part in the CIVICA Multi-Campus Course this Autumn Term, you must:

• Be a full-time master's student studying any discipline at LSE for the academic year 2026/27.
• Be prepared and committed to the duration of the CIVICA Multi-Campus Course, completing all tasks and engaging in group work.
• Complete the online application form by 25 September 2026.

This is a competitive application process, and applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application shortly after the deadline. Successful applicants will be invited to join the MultiCampus Course by the start of October.
