Students seeking the Certificate of Advanced Study-European Union Studies must fulfill the following requirements:
- Complete 18 credits of EU studies courses in at least two schools or disciplines, with at least nine credits from outside the student’s home department or school.

- Write an interdisciplinary research paper of 15-25 pages that ideally entails the use of second language materials. The paper may be prepared for a course, but students are urged to conceptualize it with the certificate in mind.
