Privacy ProtectionSince November 2023, the European University Viadrina has been a member of the European Reform University Alliance (ERUA), a network of eight universities stretching from the Canary Islands via France, Italy and Poland to Lithuania, Bulgaria and Greece. The Viadrina is thus being funded as a "European University" and will receive 2.25 million euros out of a total of 12.8 million euros for a period of four years, with which the European Commission is funding the entire ERUA network. The aim of the European Reform University Alliance is to innovatively shape the future of universities in Europe and to rethink teaching and learning as well as research and social commitment from a critical, European and inclusive perspective.
European universities
With the European Universities Programme, the European Commission is promoting the networking of universities across Europe. As cross-border university networks, they are intended to strengthen the higher education area by pooling the strengths and diversity of research and teaching at universities in Europe.
For us as the European University Viadrina, which sees itself as a reform university, full membership is both an honour and an incentive to contribute our European expertise as an innovative and inclusive university and to further strengthen our international research cooperation and mobility opportunities for all members of our university.
Prof Dr Eduard Mühle, President of the European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder)
