The original concept was devised by Professor AJR Groom of Kent and Professor Gustaaf Geeraerts of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), whilst discussing the future of European education at a pan-European conference of International Relations. The then recently opened high-speed rail link from Ashford, near Canterbury, to Brussels, made such trans-border educational cooperation technically feasible. The partnership was extended to include Professor Eric Remacle, then Director of the Institute for European Studies (IES) of the Universite Libre de Bruxelles (ULB), and the idea for a trilateral inter-institutional program in International Relations was born. The original concept was for a Masters program to be offered in Brussels, in English, taught by members of staff from all three institutions, with the degree conferred under the seals of all three Universities. To reflect the cooperative venture, the program was initially to be the "Tri-University Program in International Relations in Brussels". Notably, the initiative predated the Bologne Declaration by several years, and the concept anticipated many of the later policy developments at European level to create a cooperative and integrated educational space within the European Union. The School continues to operate in partnership with the two Brussels universities. Dr Jarrod Wiener was seconded from Kent in 1998 to found the program, now called the "Brussels School of International Studies", and there was participation in teaching from all three universities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brussels School of International Studies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
