Teaching and studies

In our research and teaching we deal with political science topics from the following two areas:

• European studies
• International relations with a special focus on Europe

We thus analyse a variety of different political science issues from a European perspective, paying particular attention to the multi-level structure of the European Union's political system. The Chair also has a research focus on politics - the actors and processes. Our research approach is always empirical-analytical, our analyses are primarily quantitative in nature. Examples of selected topics in which we are particularly interested include

• The political system of the European Union
• European elections
• Parties and the party system in Europe
• Population attitudes in Europe
• Voting behaviour in Europe
• Gender research
