The Europaeum is an association of 10 leading European university institutions, designed to serve as an ‘international university without walls’, in which future scholars and leaders of our new Europe will have an opportunity to share common learning and confront common concerns together.
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;
* 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.
