The European Graduate Network

The European Graduate Network (EGN) brings together graduate students of social sciences from

8 leading European universities: Central European University (CEU), Budapest, Hungary; European

University Institute (EUI), Florence, Italy; Humboldt Universität (HU), Berlin, Germany; Scuola

Normale Superiore – Istituto di Scienze Umane e Sociali (SNS), Florence, Italy; Institut d‘Études

Politiques (SciencesPo), Paris, France; Institute for Advanced Studies (HIS), Vienna, Austria; London

School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), London, United Kingdom; and Universitat Pompeu

Fabra (UPF), Barcelona, Spain.

The network encourages and facilitates collaborative research of PhD students of the participating

universities, emphasizing multi- and interdisciplinary approaches to political and social sciences,

such as political and social theory, political economy, comparative sociology, international

relations, and public policy. By organizing annual graduate conferences, the network aims to

provide opportunities for PhD students to improve their research projects, to discuss advanced

methodological tools, and to practice presenting and discussing academic work, as well as

establishing academic linkages and cooperation.

To date, EGN has organised conferences in Florence (2007), Budapest (2008), Barcelona (2010),

Berlin (2012), London (2013) and Paris (2014).

Welcome to Florence

Scuola Normale Superiore - Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences

The Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences is the outcome of the merging between the

Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa (SNS) and the Istituto Italiano di Scienze Umane (SUM). It

promotes advanced study in the fields of human and social sciences through the the PhD

courses in Political Science and Sociology and Renaissance Studies.

A doctoral and post-doctoral education centre. It is one of the three branches of the Scuola

Normale Superiore, a public institute of higher education with the mandate to select and train gifted

students. All students are granted scholarships and offered many opportunities to train and carry out their

research activity also in other top international universities and research centres.

The “Classe di Scienze Umane” and the “Classe di Scienze Matematiche e Naturali”, the other branches of

the Scuola Normale Superiore, are located in Pisa.

European University Institute – Department of Political and Social Sciences

The European University Institute (EUI) is a unique international centre for

doctorate and post-doctorate studies and research, situated in the Tuscan hills

overlooking Florence.

Since its establishment 40 years ago by the six founding members of the then European Communities, the

EUI has earned a reputation as a leading international academic institution with a European focus. The four

departments – Economics, History and Civilization, Law, and Political and Social Sciences – host scholars

from more than 60 countries, studying for the Institution’s doctorate or the one-year master in law.

The EUI’s distinctly international environment offers unique academic training, enriches the intellectual

experience and provides exceptional opportunities for academics across disciplines and borders. The

departments and centres are housed in 14 historic buildings scattered about the hillside which have

undergone extensive renovation in recent years.

SPS department:

The research interests of the members of the Department of Political and Social Sciences (SPS) span across

comparative politics, international relations, sociology, and social and political theory. We focus on

contemporary phenomena, at the national, sub-national and transnational level, mainly but not exclusively

in Europe.
