The annual meeting of the Unite! Universities from 27 to 29 February at TU Graz will be held under the motto "Think beyond: Unite! for Collective and Sustainable Impact". More than 350 representatives from all nine partner universities will meet for the first time in Graz to network, discuss and collaborate as part of the 9th Unite! dialogue to network, discuss and shape the future of the European university together. Students and staff from all nine universities will work on the goals and milestones of the Erasmus+-funded university alliance in working groups, plenary sessions and workshops. The social networking of all university members is also promoted as part of the dialogue through various offers.
TU Graz Rector Horst Bischof is delighted about the guests from all over Europe and the collective work:
The motto of this dialogue is aptly chosen, because it is of the utmost importance that we, as a university alliance, shape the European education and research landscape together and sustainably. TU Graz is proud to be a strong partner in this alliance and to contribute innovative ideas and solutions in forward-looking areas, be it climate protection and sustainability, AI, smart production, online teaching and much more.
(Horst Bischof, Rector of TU Graz)
