EULiST – European Universities Linking Society and Technology

Innovative teaching and learning methods such as challenge-based learning, blended intensive programmes, summer schools and much more enable students to benefit from a variety of teaching approaches and technologies through collaboration with other universities.

• Blended intensive programmes (BIPs): virtual teaching concept for short stays abroad with financial support

Flexibility and mobility: The opportunity to attend courses offered at different universities and take part in virtual mobility programmes makes it possible for students to structure their university studies individually and obtain international experience.

• Semester abroad (can be funded through Erasmus+)
• Stays for study and research purposes (bachelor’s and master’s students, doctoral candidates)
• Language tandems (through the Leibniz Language Centre)

Practical training: Close cooperation with industry partners ensures that students acquire practical skills and can prepare for a successful career.

Participation in the Student Board: Within EULiST, students play an important role both in the alliance and in project management. The Student Board advocates for the interests and needs of students, and its members are represented in all of the key EULiST governance bodies. It is therefore also part of EULiST’s top-level strategy-development and decision-making committees.

In 2018, the European Commission launched the European Universities initiative in order to thoroughly and sustainably modernise higher education in Europe.
Transnational university alliances are intended to create a joint European education area, provide excellent education and research, promote sustainability and strengthen the European identity.

The initiative’s objectives are as follows:

• Foster and strengthen the European idea.
• Increase the quality, performance and appeal of European universities.
• Support a new generation of Europeans with shared values and a European identity.

• We educate multilingual, socially responsible European citizens.
• We promote a diverse, inclusive and sustainable European campus.
• We connect innovative and flexible teaching formats with cutting-edge research.
• We support cross-border cooperation to develop societal solutions.
• We are establishing a strong knowledge and transfer network in the areas of research, innovation and politics.
