Welcome to the UCL European Institute
The European Institute is UCL's hub for research, engagement and teaching on Europe, across disciplines.
We foster an environment where work on Europe can flourish, aiming to maximise its reach and relevance - internally and externally.

Policy Careers
In a new video series,
Exploring European Policy Careers, policy leaders from our External Advisory Board reflect on their careers and share advice with students considering a career in policy, or a related field.
Black Europe
A new cross-disciplinary workstream,
Black Europe, seeks to challenge the prevailing presumptions and norms of whiteness in the study of Europe.
UCL Europe Blog
The UCL Europe Blog features European-focused academic analysis and commentary from UCL academics and external contributors across disciplines. The wide range of blogs covers issues ranging from EU politics and climate change to philosophy, public health, and Brexit. This project is an expansion of the former UCL Brexit Blog.
This blog is curated and managed by the team at the UCL European Institute, and is co-funded by the Erasmus+ fund programme and is made possible by a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence grant.
A proud Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence
Part of our activities are funded by the European Union through the Jean Monnet programme. We have been a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence since 2016, a designation that provides funding via the Erasmus+ programme.
Our five current project strands (Rule of law, Left-wing populism, Power vertical, Scotland and the EU, Britain and Europe 2.0.) centre on how intensely held beliefs and new ways of doing politics increasingly challenge the status quo in Europe.
