European University Alliance Across the EU publishes Call for project applications – Seed funding, intended for students, teaching staff and researchers, with the aim of supporting innovative, joint and interdisciplinary initiatives at a European level.

Across the EU – European alliance based on cooperation

AcrossEU unites 9 higher education institutions from 8 European countries, based on a shared vision of building a common, inclusive and visionary European university.

Through its rich network of diverse cultures, expertise and innovation, AcrossEU promotes collaboration among partners in the fields of education, research and innovation, while also encouraging the mobility of students and staff.
