The Center for European Studies, as part of the MCC School of International Relations, is MCC's window to the European Union. Its operation is based on three pillars: education, public events, and research (think-tank activities and publication). The Center follows and analyses the functioning of the EU from a Central European point of view and promotes the perspective of a European integration process that takes more into account the political and cultural diversity of its Member States.
