Grenoble INP-UGA is hosting the 7th Unite! Dialogue from the 28th February until the 2nd March, bringing together the whole Unite! community of the nine partner universities. After being granted additional funding for another four years in the Erasmus+ program, this particular Dialogue is the opportunity for all the members working in Unite! projects (Communities (E+), Work Packages (H2020), JPROV and IDEM) to gather and make decisions shaping the future of the Alliance.

We welcome everyone at your university who is collaborating within Unite! Erasmus+ and H2020 or other Unite! projects and initiatives to join this event.

About Unite!

Alongside TU Darmstadt as the coordinator, Unite! (University Network for Innovation, Technology and Engineering) also includes Aalto University (Finland), KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden), Grenoble Institute of Technology (France), Politecnico di Torino (Italy), Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain) and Universidade de Lisboa (Portugal).

The seven partner universities aim to use the European University to create a trans-European campus for students and researchers with the involvement of regions and companies. The partners have a total of 167,000 students, already cooperate closely in more than 80 EU projects and have exchanged more than 2,000 students in the past five years. The alliance has set itself the goal of combining courses for the benefit of students, breaking down existing technical and administrative hurdles, and thus significantly increasing student mobility. Research will also benefit from the conditions created for larger and easier cooperation, which will strengthen the competitiveness of the European Higher Education Area overall.
