To what extent are Alliances of European Universities actually transforming higher education and research? Circle U. and UCLouvain are delighted to invite you to reflect on this question in the presence of key stakeholders from national, EU and institutional entities, as well as other university alliances and networks. Starting with examples illustrating some of Circle U.’s main achievements over the last three years, the aim of this event is to engage in a dialogue with the actors who play a decisive role in the transformation of higher education and research in Europe.
