The Paper Mill Podcast

Katharina and Kacper met up to talk trade. What has the EU been up to? Are we compromising on normative commitments? Is the Union left without allies? From Mercosur, through India, to China, this episode covers it all. For expert opinion, we asked Prof. Bastiaan van Appeldoorn to weigh in on the topic.

The interview with Prof. Bastiaan van Appeldoorn was conducted by Sofía Rodriguez. Thank you!

The episode was produced by Katharina Graf, and hosted by Kacper Kaznowski and Katharina Graf.

How do I choose my topic? Who will be my supervisor? What track will I write about?

So many questions about writing our thesis. We interviewed Enora and Marco, two third years (now finished with PPE), about their thesis and the whole process they went through.

Listen in for some interesting thesis details ;)

Which track is the best? Together with the guests Frederikke Knudsen, Yael Kind and Mayra Dinar we discuss the best parts about Philosophy, Politics and Econ courses in PPE. Especially for all first-years a great listen that will facilitate your track-choice:

What are the best courses? How relevant is the track? What are the lectureres like? -> Find out more in this episode!
