Future generations

Preparing future generations for increasingly automated, digitalised and fluid labour markets implies reforming both educational models (through international exchange, challenge-based education, micro-credentials and other strategies) and research models, with collaboration as the driving force.

Objectives

The STARS EU Alliance of truly engaged Universities is building a future-oriented European University that will:

  • Create a new generation of future-oriented students;
  • Deliver innovative, flexible, diverse and challenge-based educational and research systems;
  • Exploit the synergies of inter-regional collaboration; and
  • Impact positively and substantially on sustainable regional and European development.
