 <title>MASTER PROGRAMME: QUADRIGA HOCHSCHULE, BERLIN</title>
 <link>https://www.aalep.eu/master-programme-quadriga-hochschule-berlin</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot; property=&quot;content:encoded&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quadriga University Berlin is incorporated in Quadriga Hochschule Berlin GmbH and is a full subsidiary of the depak-Presseakademie GmbH (Deutsche Presseakademie), Berlin.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The field of public affairs encompasses the management of a wide range of influential and advisory-based relationships existing between organisations and government. It comprises the articulation, legitimation and assertion of interests on the basis of transparency and openness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The field requires skilled managers who can handle tasks in PR and com­mu­ni­ca­tion just as professionally as they can manage the conditions and specifics of the political system and its processes. In addition, well-founded knowledge of economic relationships and backgrounds is indispensable for any successful lobbyist. The &lt;strong&gt;MBA Public Affairs &amp;amp; Leadership &lt;/strong&gt;programme unites all of these requirements in a compact, targeted academic programme.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;MBA Public Affairs &amp;amp; Leadership &lt;/strong&gt;is aimed at successful professionals working in companies, associations, NGOs, political parties, agencies or other organisations. They already have experience working in the field of politics and communication; however, they still lack more in-depth knowledge and/or managerial experience. Typical careers for these professionals include consulting positions, generally in a com­mu­ni­ca­tion field, after completing a humanities or social sciences degree. However, many other career paths and positions can lead to the Public Affairs &amp;amp; Leadership programme. For example, the programme also targets employees of members of the German Federal or State Parliaments, as well as members of the political party structure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MBA programme trains students for managerial roles in political com­mu­ni­ca­tion at companies and associations, as well as at public affairs and full-service agencies. Graduates of the programme head the corresponding departments and are responsible for com­mu­ni­ca­tion with the legislative and executive branches. The MBA programme unites precise knowledge of the political system, the political decision-making and legislative processes, and lobbying with in-depth education in com­mu­ni­ca­tion and management topics as well as economic and managerial skills.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Curriculum&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MBA Public Affairs &amp;amp; Leadership programme is composed of eight modules and the thesis:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Economics and Management I (Basics&lt;/strong&gt;): Familiarises students with the fundamentals of economic thought. The module teaches students how the economy functions and how it behaves.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Communication Circle&lt;/strong&gt;: Introduces students to the world of communication management; makes process accessible and backgrounds clear. In Communication Circle module, participants learn the social and psychological mechanisms of communication management and strengthen their communication skills.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Management II (Organisation &amp;amp; Leadership)&lt;/strong&gt;: Prepares participants to head a public affairs department or division. Students gain insights into principles of leadership, organisation, management and human resources.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Politics:&lt;/strong&gt; Covers, in detail, the legal foundations of legislation in Germany and the formal and informal processes associated with it. This provides the students concrete facts to back up their work in the political arena. At the European level, politics and lobbying conform to their own set of regulations. This module gives the participants an overview of the legislative process, treaties and relevant actors in the European Union.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Management III (Law, Accounting and Finance&lt;/strong&gt;): Introduces students to the sensitive areas of business of which lobbyists must have a firm grasp in order to make the necessary arguments or to take an accepted position in a company: Economic Law, Accounting, Investing and Finance. Also highlights some economic aspects.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Representation of Interests and Public Affairs&lt;/strong&gt;: This module gives an overview of the various actors involved in lobbying and provides details of processes involved in that area. The students learn about political parties and important political associations, and they become familiar with the wide range of lobbying tools. Altogether, the module combines the skills and knowledge important to a PA manager: factors for success, mechanisms, methods and backgrounds of strategic lobbying. It demonstrates how to be a strong performer in the socio-political sphere.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Management IV (Corporate Strategy and Marketing): &lt;/strong&gt;Public affairs managers must have a strong working knowledge of many disciplines in their field. A comprehensive approach requires a practice-oriented grasp of corporate strategy and marketing, particularly political marketing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Strategy and Campaigning&lt;/strong&gt;: Planning and implementing communication strategies and demonstrating success: in this module, participants learn the strategic foundations of successful campaign management and begin applying them directly.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>MASTER PROGRAMME: MAASTRICHT UNIVERSITY (NL)</title>
 <link>https://www.aalep.eu/master-programme-maastricht-university-nl</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot; property=&quot;content:encoded&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Master’s degree in European Public Affairs (MA EPA) established in 1999 is a one-year academic programme that is oriented towards the professional practice of public affairs in the European Union (EU). The MA EPA defines public affairs as the process of developing and influencing public – European Union – policy. Public affairs is a field closely related to public policy and public administration, and the programme aims to prepare students for a career in European or EU-related public affairs and public service.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The advanced level of knowledge and skills that a European public affairs professional requires is highly dependent on a solid level of understanding of the relevant academic concepts, theories and research methods. The public affairs profession requires academics who know how to analyse, critically evaluate and research EU policy problems. The policy context in the European Union is complex, and contemporary policy problems transcend national and disciplinary borders. In the public domain of Europe a great variety of institutions and solutions has been established to address these problems. They often reflect country-specific preferences for particular approaches and legal instruments or differences in political or administrative culture or socio-economic conditions. MA EPA graduates have developed the capacity to apply theoretical ideas and transfer academic evaluation into specific policy solutions. MA EPA graduates can contextualise and analyse problems in their context, as well as design, assess and communicate proposed solutions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to become professionals who can undertake academic research, analyse and critically evaluate policy issues, MA EPA graduates need to be able to understand and use a variety of relevant disciplinary approaches. From the perspectives of political science, law, economics, cultural science and public administration, the programme delves into contemporary policy problems. Students are encouraged to become familiar with national and regional differences within the European territory, and to search out commonalities and paths for integration.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MA EPA is unique in its practice-oriented approach. Firstly, the MA EPA is offered in cooperation with the European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) in Maastricht. EIPA is an organisation that carries out European affairs research and training, mainly for EU Member States, neighbourhood and applicant state civil servants. EIPA staff are directly involved in teaching and programme planning, which ensures that there is a direct link between the ‘classroom’ and the ‘professional world’. Secondly, MA EPA students are exposed to a teaching format using practical assignments derived from the practice of European public affairs, whereby in small international teams, under strict and tight deadlines, students simulate the professional world as much as possible. Such assignments always require students to conduct high-level academic research; MA EPA students require a strong theoretical understanding of the working and functioning of the system of European governance before being able to critically evaluate potential policy solutions. Thirdly, the MA EPA concludes with a 12-week internship, ensuring that all students are provided with the opportunity to gain relevant work experience and the stimulus to critically reflect upon and evaluate their own learning process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The programme&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;focuses on Europe, taking cross-national diversity into account, as well as the European Union and its institutions,&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;is multi-disciplinary, focusing on contemporary issues in the public domain&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;is research-based and practice-oriented&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;is a one-year Master&#039;s Programme, offered in English&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;is selective, with a maximum of 30 students&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; MA EPA graduates are academic professionals who:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;can understand and critically evaluate the complex system of European governance;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;are capable of understanding and analyzing contemporary EU policy problems;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;are capable of researching and reporting / communicating solutions for such policy problems, and;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;have well developed know-how in order that they can strategically influence the EU policy process to address such policy problems.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; EPA graduates may develop their careers in public organizations with European or transnational missions. They may also work as managers and staff analysts in non-profit organisations, in public affairs divisions of private corporations, in private firms or in consulting firms.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Programme Components &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The programme consists of four modules which explore various aspects of European Union politics, economics, governance and policy-making, and an internship:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Perspectives on Europe&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Governance in the EU&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lobbying in the EU&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Implementation and Evaluation of EU Policy&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Internship including thesis (with Internship Report)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Tags:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot; rel=&quot;dc:subject&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/taxonomy/term/270&quot; typeof=&quot;skos:Concept&quot; property=&quot;rdfs:label skos:prefLabel&quot; datatype=&quot;&quot;&gt;Master Programme&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item odd&quot; rel=&quot;dc:subject&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/taxonomy/term/273&quot; typeof=&quot;skos:Concept&quot; property=&quot;rdfs:label skos:prefLabel&quot; datatype=&quot;&quot;&gt;Maastricht University (NL)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;social-share clearfix&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;share-label&quot;&gt;Share to: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://digg.com/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;title=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&quot; class=&quot;social-share-digg&quot; title=&quot;Digg&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Digg&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;t=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&quot; class=&quot;social-share-facebook&quot; title=&quot;Facebook&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Facebook&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://plus.google.com/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&quot; class=&quot;social-share-googleplus&quot; title=&quot;Google Plus&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Plus&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;mini=true&amp;amp;title=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&amp;amp;ro=false&amp;amp;summary=The%20Master%E2%80%99s%20degree%20in%20European%20Public%20Affairs%20%28...&amp;amp;source=&quot; class=&quot;social-share-linkedin&quot; title=&quot;LinkedIn&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://profile.live.com/badge/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;title=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&amp;amp;description=The%20Master%E2%80%99s%20degree%20in%20European%20Public%20Affairs%20%28...&quot; class=&quot;social-share-msnlive&quot; title=&quot;MSN Live&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;MSN Live&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://reddit.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;title=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&quot; class=&quot;social-share-reddit&quot; title=&quot;Reddit&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Reddit&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://stumbleupon.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;title=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&quot; class=&quot;social-share-stumbleupon&quot; title=&quot;StumbleUpon&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;StumbleUpon&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;text=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&quot; class=&quot;social-share-twitter&quot; title=&quot;Twitter&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://bookmarks.yahoo.com/toolbar/savebm?opener=tb&amp;amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aalep.eu%2Fmaster-programme-maastricht-university-nl&amp;amp;t=MASTER%20PROGRAMME%3A%20MAASTRICHT%20UNIVERSITY%20%28NL%29&amp;amp;d=The%20Master%E2%80%99s%20degree%20in%20European%20Public%20Affairs%20%28...&quot; class=&quot;social-share-yahoo&quot; title=&quot;Yahoo&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Yahoo&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;In 2013 the training programme was organised in four semesters as each contains basic elective disciplines and the implementation of a research project. The first semester includes the following &lt;strong&gt;compulsory disciplines&lt;/strong&gt;: Situating Ourselves in Complex Settings; Statistics and Data Analysis for Policymakers - part 1; State Recruiting and Policy Change: government and governance; Microeconomics for Public Policy; International Macroeconomics and Policy Making; Foundational Proseminar: Understanding Ourselves as Public Affairs Actors. &lt;strong&gt;Elective courses &lt;/strong&gt;are as follows: Complexity Science: New Ways of Thinking for Policy makers; Policy-Making in Transition: Tools and Strategies; East Asian Political Economy in Transition; Trade and development in Low Income Countries; European Union/Asia in a comparative perspective.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Education in the second semester covers the following &lt;strong&gt;basic&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;subjects&lt;/strong&gt;: Study trip; Governing by Delegation; Comparative Public Management; Statistics and data Analysis for Policymakers, second level); Microeconomics for Public Policy – Level 2); International Macroeconomics and Policy Making - Level 2; Microeconomics for Public Policy, level 3). &lt;strong&gt;Elective disciplines &lt;/strong&gt;(study courses) are: Management of Organizational and Institutional Conflict; From Аnalysis to Policy; Transnational Collective Action; International Health; Global Dimensions of Democracy and the Rule of Law; Scenario Planning; Capstone project.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The curriculum for the last fourth semester includes&lt;strong&gt; mandatory lectures &lt;/strong&gt;in Public Finance and Financial Management and the &lt;strong&gt;election of a study course from two groups&lt;/strong&gt;: a) First group: Risk Governance; Multilevel Economic Governance; Global Governance for Sustainable Development; Economic and Territorial Development; Comparative and Global Social Policy and Governance; Human Security; Second group: Management of Organizational and Institutional Conflict; From Analysis to Policy; Transnational Collective Action; International Health; Global Dimensions of Democracy and the Rule of Law; Scenario Planning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Master programme curriculum changes taken only in one year reflect the new realities of the national state, regional and global levels and that require new ways of thinking and action. Some disciplines are dropped out and other, new ones appear.
