European Universities Accelerator

The EUF European Universities Accelerator provides a powerful platform for member universities to collaborate and drive the advancement of their respective Alliances. The Accelerator convenes regularly to tackle common challenges and develop innovative solutions. 

More specifically, what are Accelerator sessions about?  

Members gain access to a wealth of community expertise and a diverse portfolio of activities closely aligned with Alliance objectives. The Accelerator fosters a cooperative mindset among the Alliances, transitioning from a competitive approach. As EUF member universities play a significant role in about two-thirds of all Alliances, this platform is a crucial catalyst for the development of the European University Alliances. 

What to expect from Accelerator sessions?  

Over the past academic years, the European Universities Accelerator community has explored a wide range of strategic and operational topics central to the success of university alliances. Discussions have focused on sustainable mobility targets, optimised funding strategies, and the challenges and opportunities in implementing Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs). The Community has also addressed digital solutions to support data exchange and streamline student enrolment, while promoting student engagement through more flexible mobility pathways.

Who can participate?  

All colleagues from EUF network universities involved in Alliance activities are encouraged to participate.  

Details on session registration and additional information will be shared through the EUF European Universities Accelerator mailing list. To stay informed about the European Universities Accelerator and its upcoming sessions, please sign up here.
