The Master of Arts in Transatlantic Affairs (MATA) combines the resources of the College of Europe (Bruges and Natolin) and The Fletcher School for students looking to acquire academic and professional skills needed to launch their international career.
MATA students can specialize in the political, legal, and economic aspects of transatlantic relations that include:

Both institutions are renowned for their academic excellence developed by teaching staff composed of both leading academics and practitioners, professional training to prepare students for a variety of career trajectories, and their extensive international alumni networks.
