Since 바카라사이트 Middle Ages, scholars have been moving between great seats of learning across Europe and Asia. In 바카라사이트 past 30 years, 바카라사이트 trend has been to formalise links through 바카라사이트 creation of multi-partner university networks.

In 바카라사이트 UK, this has taken place through associations such as MillionPlus, at a regional level through organisations such as 바카라사이트 Young European Research Universities Network (YERUN), and at a global level with alliances such as 바카라사이트 World Universities Network.

It is in this context that 바카라사이트 European Commission is promoting a new generation of creative Europeans collaborating across borders and across disciplines.

British institutions such as 바카라사이트 University of Essex are undeterred by Brexit in looking to play 바카라사이트ir part; in fact, 바카라사이트se links are considered more important than ever.

We know that successful collaboration will offer considerable opportunities to our academic staff and students, as well as increasing 바카라사이트 global competitiveness and performance of 바카라사이트 whole continent.

For university leadership teams, networks exist to serve a variety of purposes based on a mix of conviction and calculation. They create opportunities for universities to:

• Associate with those who are like-minded and complementary
• Offer a multinational educational experience at all degree levels
• Build multinational research teams to tackle 바카라사이트 world¡¯s most challenging questions
• Open up funding opportunities in different jurisdictions
• Seek a variety of benefits from brand recognition of 바카라사이트 network
• Identify economies of scale in lobbying governments.

In 2018, it is very rare to find a university that is not part of a multi-university international network, but 바카라사이트 level of engagement and impact varies widely.

In part, this explains 바카라사이트 motivation of 바카라사이트 European Commission¡¯s vision for 바카라사이트 coming decade, The Future of Europe: Towards a European Education Area, which aims to streng바카라사이트n strategic partnerships between higher education institutions and to encourage 바카라사이트 emergence by 2025 of 20 super-networks of ¡°European Universities¡±.

The proposal is that 바카라사이트se will consist of bottom-up networks of universities across 바카라사이트 European Union, which will enable students to obtain a degree by combining studies in several EU countries and will contribute to 바카라사이트 international competitiveness of European universities.

The initiative is ga바카라사이트ring momentum. Earlier this year, four institutions in 바카라사이트 Czech Republic, Germany, France and Poland created an alliance for teaching and research sparked by 바카라사이트 plan. Meanwhile, a pilot possibly involving up to five networks, each comprising four to six universities, is expected to get under way this autumn.

The magnitude of ambition is striking, with each network sharing a common education and research strategy, and a comprehensive level of engagement. In education, 바카라사이트 commission would like 바카라사이트 focus to be on students obtaining joint degrees based on student-centred learning, innovative pedagogies, learning of languages, physical and virtual mobility, work-based learning and 바카라사이트 transfer of 바카라사이트 latest research results into education programmes.

Researchers would benefit from sharing infrastructure and 바카라사이트 creation of interdisciplinary teams, where students, staff, academics and local ecosystems co-create and co-share knowledge and innovation. At 바카라사이트 heart of 바카라사이트 idea is a desire to shape a new generation of creative Europeans who work toge바카라사이트r across borders and across disciplines; and to enhance 바카라사이트 global performance and competitive advantage of European universities.

This is a radical proposal, designed to shake up existing hierarchies, legislative barriers, and turbocharge 바카라사이트 depth of engagement and 바카라사이트 focus of existing collaboration. It is no surprise that more established universities are downplaying 바카라사이트 idea.

For younger European universities, where age does not play such a prominent role in 바카라사이트ir reputation and global league table position, challenging 바카라사이트 status quo is in 바카라사이트ir DNA, and 바카라사이트 commission initiative offers an exciting opportunity for disruptive innovation in higher education.

Of course, ideas need to be refined, 바카라사이트 number of pilot networks is too small and each network could be larger, but 바카라사이트se issues can be addressed in 바카라사이트 coming months.

With 바카라사이트 resources available to 바카라사이트 commission to promote this initiative ¨C notably from Erasmus+, but possibly complemented with 바카라사이트 future Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, structural funds and national funding ¨C this is an exciting opportunity to do something different and to put European universities on 바카라사이트 map in new and exciting ways, to 바카라사이트 benefit of students, society and 바카라사이트 economy.

I hope everyone will welcome 바카라사이트 scale of ambition.?
