This course is a special cross-campus partnership, joining students from several European universities. Each year, students work together to develop a common proposal to address challenges facing contemporary European governance. This year, the course focuses on one of the main topics of current European and global policy - challenges of climate change. Students from different universities will be assigned to groups to work on the positions of individual member countries, which they present on an ongoing basis. Students partly participate in joint seminars and partly work in groups independently. Finally, a simulation of the European Council is held, in which they should negotiate and create a common EU position.
The focus of the course is suitable for the involvement of students from various EU and non-EU countries, as it will allow them to connect and cooperate in finding a compromise and negotiating a common position in the European Council. Students not only get acquainted with the focus of the course (Climate Change), they learn to work in an international team, to find a compromise, which must also argue well and negotiate with each other.

Requirements

This is a course based on student interaction and initiative, the professor plays a role of an observer, note taker, and enabler. Students are generally expected to do research in small groups (in the library and online), and discuss positions within groups, across groups.

1)     Students are randomly assigned to represent one of the EU member states.

2)     Each member state prepares a draft program logically associated with the member state's approach towards the climate change.

a.     Each member state will first produce a press-release (1-2pg) outlining their aims,

b.     Then each member state will formulate a political program (3-4pg).

3)     The member states will seek to coalesce and form a majority (containing at least 50% of all students), and formulate a (short – 3-4pg) common position of the European Council.

4)     Those member states that do not enter the majority will formulate minority dissenting positions (explaining why they disagree with the majority). 

The entire course is examined through group work including: 

1)     member states press-releases (20 pts)

2)     member states political programmes (35 pts) 

3)     common position in the European Council (35 pts)

4)     active participation in class meetings and seminars (10 pts).

Each student is expected to have completed and reflected upon the assigned readings and to actively participate in seminar discussions. Evaluation of this requirement will emphasize the quality rather than only the quantity of student participation.

As an additional condition, it is necessary to achieve at least half of the points from each assignment.
