The projects aim to modernise higher education and widen access, raise its quality and link to the labour market, internationalise universities and support regional integration.

Joint projects

Developing and modernising curricula and programmes, modern teaching methods and equipment. Three categories: programme development, university management, links between universities and the economy and society.
