During this webinar, EUA will update participants on the current status of the development of the European degree label, explain how and when it can be used by institutional consortia offering joint degrees and provide some reflections on the future evolution of the initiative.
The European degree is an initiative of the European Commission to support the development of transnational higher education in Europe. It aims to promote deeper institutional cooperation by supporting joint degree programmes delivered by consortia of universities from different European countries, including European Universities alliances.
While the long-term perspective for the European degree is to become a new degree type within national frameworks, the first steps for its development sees the roll-out of a European degree label. This is a quality seal to be awarded to joint degrees that meet specific criteria that relate to the European profile of the programme, as well as policy priorities such as sustainability, multidisciplinarity and innovation.
