The Port to EUCustoms LawPost-Master in EU Customs Law 2015 / 2016
THE PORT TO EU CUSTOMS LAW
The Foundation for European Fiscal Studies (EFS)
has been offering post-master’s programmes since
the early 1990s. The main focus of these
programmes has traditionally been on international
and EU tax law. Interest in an English-language post-
master’s programme in EU customs law has grown
rapidly, however, particularly as customs law is now largely uniform within
the EU and in response to the upcoming Union Customs Code. EFS is
therefore proud to announce the launch of its exclusive English-language
post-master’s programme in EU customs law. This programme builds on
the experience that EFS has gained from the Dutch-language programme
that it has offered for the past nine years. This new EFS programme will
provide access to customs law for a far wider audience.
