UNICA universities in projects selected for piloting a joint European degree label and institutionalised EU cooperation instruments
31 January 2023 | From UNICA - European Universities
The European Commission has published the results of the Erasmus+ call for proposals to pilot a joint European degree label and test institutionalised EU cooperation instruments, such as a possible European legal status for alliances.
Across the 10 projects selected by the EC to the two topics, there are 6 that include the participation of a total of 10 UNICA universities.
The initiative aims to facilitate deeper transnational cooperation between higher education institutions in Europe. The outcomes of these pilots will be discussed with the Council that will decide on the next steps.
