It is based on international standards and reference parameters for teaching political science in accordance with level 7 of the European Qualifications Framework. EuroPS partners contribute with their specific academic profiles in comparative politics, European integration, international relations, public administration, and political theory. Western Balkans partners also provide specific academic expertise regarding political developments in the region.
