The Master of Arts in German and European Studies (MAGES) is a two-year, full-time, interdisciplinary course of study. The program encourages students to expand their studies and develop regional/thematic concentrations by connecting with other programs within the SFS.


The program begins with a set of required core courses, each of which frames European studies from a particular disciplinary vantage point. Students then pursue elective courses, which may be taken not only within German and European Studies, but also across the Walsh School of Foreign Service and in other departments of Georgetown University.

More programs from the university

The Georgetown University undergraduate program is a legacy of academic excellence combined with a devotion to humanitarian service. Students study a core curriculum in international affairs, government, economics, history, theology, philosophy, and geography, with a language proficiency requirement. More than 70% of SFS students spend time abroad engaging with the global community during their undergraduate experience.

In a continually changing and unpredictable world, the overarching mission of the School is to prepare women and men to be creative leaders with a commitment to service and an understanding of the ethical component of global affairs. In order to achieve this mission, the School works to ensure that our graduate students have the proper substantive understanding of the international system and the necessary skills to thrive in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors of international affairs.

The Walsh School of Foreign Service awarded its first graduate degree in the early 1920s. Since that time, the SFS has continued to develop an innovative approach to graduate education for professional careers in international affairs.
