Centre for European Studies
University of Twente
The Centre for European Studies (CES) is part of the School of Management and Governance of the University of Twente. Its purpose is to pool European studies and European research at MB and to serve as a centre for coordination in that field. In that capacity, the CES functions as a contact point for students, lecturers, and researchers who are involved or interested in European studies. At the same time, it is an information point for the public sector, journalists, or companies in need of expertise in the area of European governance. The CES has established contacts with numerous other national and international institutes.
The CES is a virtual centre in the sense that researchers and lecturers involved remain members of their own departments. It has no research programme of its own. Its coordinating activities are beneficial for the entire faculty. Through the CES, the ‘European’ activities of faculty members become visible for third parties. In that sense, the CES may be regarded as the faculty’s portal in this area.
Connected with the CES is the European Documentation Centre (EDC), which contains all official publications of the institutions of the European Union, as well as about 1500 books and subscriptions on the leading journals in the field. The EDC has access to all major EU databases.
