EUF exclusive network event

EUF exclusive network event

It is our pleasure to announce the second EUF exclusive network event taking place on January 29th 2020 in Barcelona.

Hosted by the University of Barcelona, the event brings together colleagues from across the EUF universities and marks the beginning of new joint initiative led by the EUF and the University of Barcelona: the University Internationalisation Hub. We believe this will amount to an important contribution for the continued modernisation of the European Higher Education Area, as well as strengthen the EUF network activities.

During this exclusive EUF member event, which will commence at 9:30, you will also have the chance to learn more about the most recent activities of the network and how you can maximise the benefits of being part of it. You will also have the opportunity to meet colleagues from other EUF member universities during a networking session.
