Abstract

This Panel focuses on the European Universities Initiative (EUI) – a flagship project of the EU that since 2019 has been supporting the establishment of transnational alliances between universities. Developed rather quickly (in less than a year), it has garnered significant EU-level support and funding despite (a) concerning an area in which the EU has only supporting competence and (b) the overall crisis of the European integration project. The Panel welcome studies analyzing various aspects of the EUI, including: its development, relationship with other EU programmes in the area of knowledge, characteristics of universities that form transnational alliances and their rationales, EUI’s impact on universities, etc.
