Via the Erasmus + programme for higher education

This project contributes to the objectives of the European Higher Education Area :

• improving the quality and strengthening the European dimension of our education.
• increasing the mobility of students, teachers, teacher-researchers and university staff.
• strengthening multilateral cooperation.
• qualification recognition.
• internationalization of the institution.

Many projects funded by the Erasmus programme combine mobility and partnerships. Focus on the International Credit Mobility (ICM) programme with Tunisia, a project centred around 6 partner universities throughout the country, particularly in remote regions. Numerous mobility of students and academic and administrative staff have taken place in both directions and new areas of cooperation have been created.

Global Challenges Science Week

The Global Challenges Science Week 2019 counted more than 1000 registered with 350 to 550 participants everyday from 18 different countries gathering around 15 scientific workshops, 8 PhD Thesis Awards, 6 plenary lectures, 1 "Conférence d'Exception", as well as, many demonstrations and networking opportunities. They shared the latest research results, debated about interdisciplinary issues, and discussed opportunities to set up new international collaborations to tackle the main 21st century challenges.

UNITE!

One of the recent major achievements of the European Research and Higher Education Area is undoubtedly the establishment of European University Networks (EUN). AGU is thus a member of Unite! which aims to develop a model of mixed (virtual and physical), multidisciplinary and multicultural inter-university campus connecting science, engineering and entrepreneurship in the service of major societal challenges.

This project, selected and funded by the European Commission to the tune of €5 million for the period 2020-2022, aims to create a large European campus from Finland to Portugal.

Some figures on UNITE!

• 167000 students.
• 36600 graduates/year (2017-2018).
• More than 80 European collaborative projects.
• 500 M€ of research / year (2017).
