SUMMARY

Going to school for European Studies is a valuable choice and naturally an obligatory first step for undergraduates hoping to enter a career as a supply chain analyst, an eurasian archaeologist, or an analyst international. Interestingly, european studies is an uncommon major being the 377th most popular area of study. Last academic year, there were 81 european studies graduates. In-state tuition for european studies at private universities is, on average, 4.9 times more expensive than their public fellows.

With just 62 schools having programs for european studies you may have a smaller selection of institutions you can choose from. If you are looking to immerse yourself with other european studies majors, look at colleges in Washington which have more undergrads admitted to european studies than any other state. More generally, the best region to major in european studies is in the Far West region with University of California-Irvine, University of California-Los Angeles, and University of Washington-Seattle Campus best representing the region. Interestingly, our pick of the top conference to major in european studies is the Pacific-12 Conference with University of California-Los Angeles representing the conference. Based on our comprehensive list on the best colleges, our selection for the best university for european studies is University of California-Los Angeles.

The 'best' school does not have to be the 'best' school for you. There can be lots of factors to weigh when choosing ​university. Things like campus amenities, transportation services, and food would modify your feelings of where to go to university. At Authority, we have weighed the pros and cons for you. If, for example, you are intrigued by which european studies college has the best college campus, the winner is University of California-Los Angeles. If you are primarily interested in which college boasts the top campus, we have a whole page dedicated to that. We have carefully pored through government databases, student reviews, professor reviews, and more to evaluate each major in an unbiased and informative way. You can explore our well researched list for the universities with the best student life&nbsphere and from that list, our pick for the college with the best student life for european studies is University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

If price is a primary factor in your decisions, you might consider avoiding Middlebury College. Middlebury College&nbspappears to be our most expensive school for european studies, at least regarding out of state students. We do have a page for the most expensive&nbspcolleges that could put the price tag at Middlebury College&nbspinto perspective. For more context, you could want to know that european studies is the 118th most expensive major in the nation, with an average cost of $37,100.

In-state attendees can expect to pay in the neighborhood of $11,600 for a degree in european studies. That price grows by a lot to a median of $34,900 for the out-of-state public-school student. On that note, our selection for the university representing the best value for european studies: Middlebury College. On this page you will see our comprehensive list on the universities we see as being the best value&nbspoverall. With that said, this idea is predicated on being an out-of-state student. The value proposition changes when in-state tuition costs are considered, but we do not know where you live (and are not trying to collect that kind of data).

While there is much variation in earnings; highest paid earners can make up to $80,700. Right out of school, the lowest end jobs within the european studies field make $27,000, which could be worse. The top earning graduates for european studies have come from University of California-Los Angeles&nbspand if you want to find the colleges with all of the highest earning graduates, Authority has that too.
