The Europaeum Mission

The Europaeum was founded in 1992 as an association of leading European universities, with a mission to:

  • Promote excellence in academic links in research and teaching collaboration between the Europaeum partners;
  • Act as an open academic network linking the Europaeum partners and other bodies in the pursuit of study;
  • Serve as a resource for the general support and promotion of European studies;
  • Translate this page:

  • Function independently in the search for new ideas;
  • Provide opportunities for the joint pursuit of new pan-European initiatives;
  • Serve as a high level 'think-tank' exploring new ideas and new roles for universities in the new Learning Age;
  • Provide a 'pool of talent' to carry out research and inquiry into problems and questions confronting Europe today and tomorrow;
  • Help train and educate future leaders for a new Europe.

Europaeum programmes include research projects, annual conferences and student summer schools, lectures, joint teaching programmes, public debates, staff mobility schemes, linked scholarship schemes, and a developing knowledge platform.
