In this series of posts we will be looking at various notable accomplishments by our faculty members and the department as a whole. Starting this week with Professor Achim Hurrelmann.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In March 2019, Professor Hurrelmann launched a new research project on \u201cThe Reconfiguration of Canada-Europe Relations after Brexit\u201d, in collaboration with Petra Dolata, Patrick Leblond, and Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric M\u00e9rand, funded by a SSHRC Insight Grant.

Professor Hurrelmann also coordinated the successful application for new EU funding, from the Erasmus+ Programme, for ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´\u2019s Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence. The Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence is one of the main projects housed in the Centre for European Studies, which Professor Hurrelmann co-directs with Professor Joan DeBardeleben.<\/a> The grant was awarded in July 2019.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August 2019, Professor Hurrelmann was awarded the \u201cExcellence in Blended and Online Teaching Award\u201d by the Office of the Associate Vice-President (Teaching & Learning). The award recognized the development and delivery of his summer course, EURR 5108, Canada-EU Relations, which Professor Hurrelmann transformed into a blended (part-online) format in 2016. In Summer 2019, the course included, for the first time, eight guest students from European universities (University of Antwerp, University of Latvia, Technical University Darmstadt, Technical University Munich). It will be offered again in Summer of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, Professor Hurrelmann was the keynote speaker for the opening of the Jean Monnet Chair \u201cThe Future of the EU post-Brexit\u201d at MacEwan University in Edmonton. A video of his lecture, titled \u201cWhy Brexit Matters for Canada\u201d, and a podcast Professor Hurrelmann recorded with Dr. Andrea Wagner, are available at: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC8oBxNKEUh3PnaF9sMzP_PA<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
