Unite!4Future: share your vision of the university of the future

The Unite!4Future Programme's main goal is to attract the participation of students from the nine alliance partner universities with the aim of calling for creative ideas about what can be expected at a university of the future. With a competition format, in a bottom-up approach, Unite!4Future will enable student participation by presenting concrete, original and implementable ideas in a video format, that bring added value for all Unite! community. The projects are non-academic, but related to all other aspects of university student experience and daily life on campus.

The video proposals should be designed to contribute to the life and activities of the Unite! alliance partner universities and must address at least one of the key topics: Diversity and inclusion; Environment and sustainability; Academic experience, Mobility and Languages or Digitalization. All you have to do is gather a team of students from other Unite! partner universities and prepare a video with your vision of the university of the future.

Once you have your group and the idea materialised in a video you can apply to the Unite!4Future programme within the designated period from the 9th until the 31st of January, 2023.
