European studies?

I am thinking about doing a European studies with the French pathway course at uni, but is this good? It is something i would really like to do, especially because i get a year abroad in Paris, which i love. However, i would like to work in european politics. Is this a good course for this? Is there anyone who has done this course who has any tips? Could I still get in to European Politics?

What do you mean by 'work in European Politics' - do you mean working for the EU?

There are numerous degree subjects that will allow you to work in this sort of career area, such as Law, Economics, Politics, Social Policy, International Development etc. Most can be combined with a language and/or study abroad. And most Unis will offer extra-curricula language classes even if you are not taking a language within your degree.

I would love to work for the EU, but that’s what I mean: I’m not quite sure how to get there.
But thank you, you have been very helpful!
