Research Projects

The scale of research activity at the College of Europe is substantial, involving not only the Academic Departments but also its Development Office. The Development Office is committed to achieving excellence in its research activities and projects, and to ensuring that our research contributes somehow to the evolution and welfare of society.

Our aim is to provide academic leadership in the areas of expertise of the College of Europe and to develop strategic partnerships with academia and industry around the world to advance research, and the impact of that research, in EU affairs.
