European royals get ready for university return - here's where they study

After completing a three-year degree in Politics, Psychology, Law, and Economics in July at the University of Amsterdam, the future queen will return to the faculty to take up a course in Dutch Law. Catharina-Amalia, 21, will also participate in the Defensity College training program for the next two academic years alongside her studies.

The future queen, 19, finished her naval training this summer, having completed a five-month voyage aboard the naval training ship, Juan Sebastián de Elcano, as part of the deployment. On 1 September, Leonor will begin her third and final year of her military training at San Javier Air Force Academy in Murcia. Her first year was spent with the General Military Academy in Zaragoza.

Leonor's younger sister, 18, graduated from UWC Atlantic College in Wales in May, having obtained her two-year International Baccalaureate diploma. In September, Sofia will study Politics and International Relations at Forward College, a course which will span three years and see the royal study in Lisbon, then Paris and finally Berlin.

The Danish royal, 19, began his Lieutenant's training course at Antvorskov Barracks in Slagelse this month. He first began his military service with the Guard Hussar regiment at the barracks in February, which culminated in a strenuous four-day exercise, known as a REX-tour, in May. After graduating from high school last summer, Christian spent three months working on farms and conservation projects in East Africa.

The Norwegian royal, 21, enrolled at the University of Sydney in Australia in August to begin a three-year degree course in social sciences. Prior to that, she completed 15 months of military training.

The Belgian princess, 23, will continue her two-year master's degree in public policy at Harvard this autumn.
