UU believes that an international environment promotes a stimulating academic and intellectual climate, an open attitude among staff and students and the expansion of scientific knowledge; It equips students and staff with the competencies needed for the future in our increasingly globalized society. Internationalization is a requirement for the quality of education and research, and through the university’s education and research, its societal impact: a better world. In our Internationalization Strategy we work towards: 1. An integrated and fully monitored INTERNATIONAL STUDENT JOURNEY 2. An integrated and fully monitored INTERNATIONAL STAFF JOURNEY 3. An INTERNATIONAL LEARNING EXPERIENCE for all UU students 4. International PARTNERSHIPS for teaching, research and societal impact. KA131 is a very relevant instrument in pursuing all 4 goals. ECHE principles help us provide all service and guidance for international students and staff. Outgoing students have an international learning experience during their mobility, and local students gain international experience thanks to incoming students helping create an international classroom. And all partnerships in 131 offer a solid base for mobilities and cooperation in other domains.
