Welcome to the website of ���������ֳ�’s Centre for European Studies (CEUROS).

CEUROS was founded in 1992 by the then Jean Monnet Professor of European Integration Professor Edward Moxon-Browne. It was designated a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence in 1999.

After Professor Moxon-Browne’s retirement in 2010, Professor Bernadette Andréosso-O’Callaghan, Jean Monnet Professor in European Economics, became Director of CEUROS, followed by Jean Monnet Chair in European Cultural Studies, Professor Joachim Fischer, who was Director from 2019 until his retirement in 2023. In September 2023 Dr Michaela Schrage-Frueh took up the directorship of CEUROS upon her appointment as Associate Professor in German Studies.

Under the leadership of Professor Fischer, and now Associate Professor Schrage-Früh, CEUROS has become affiliated with the School of Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics, emphasising the strong cultural and multilingual dimension of European Studies, while still maintaining its interdisciplinary profile with members from six different Schools/Departments.

CEUROS functions as the key facilitator of ���������ֳ�’s European activities. It aims to serve as a vibrant focus for EU and Europe-related teaching, research and civic engagement, while maintaining and enhancing the visibility of the European dimension within the university as a whole.
