Una Europa Welcomes Leiden University

As a new member of the Una Europa alliance, Leiden University joins Freie Universität Berlin, KU Leuven, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, and the universities of Bologna, Edinburgh, Helsinki, and Krakow. 2022 is off to a good start for Una Europa, as the alliance of leading research universities gets to welcome a new member from the Netherlands. Leiden University and the other Una Europa partners will draw on their collective strengths to shape the future of Europe through innovative education, research, and international exchange. Established in 2018, the Una Europa alliance goes beyond traditional geographical and disciplinary boundaries to work towards a virtual 'multi-campus' European university of the future. The alliance's flagship project 1Europe aims to establish a Europe-wide living lab with over twenty joint innovative formats for education and mobility at its core, including the Una Europa Joint Bachelor in European Studies and Joint PhD in Cultural Heritage as well as the Joint Micro Module in Sustainability and the Continuous Education Certificate in Data Science and AI. In the Una.Resin project , the alliance is taking the first steps towards developing an Una Europa ecosystem for research and innovation by building a common research and innovation agenda, developing joint strategies for sharing infrastructures, and strengthening human capital. Leiden University encompasses seven faculties in two major Dutch cities: Leiden and the Hague.
