Student opportunities

What role do students play in shaping and innovating Una Europa?

Edinburgh students have played a crucial role in shaping Una Europa – from aligning curriculum transformations, and testing teaching formats and processes, to generating meaningful engagement. Encompassing all study levels, the multi-disciplinary activities Edinburgh students’ have experienced over the last three years include multilingual, challenge-based virtual and mobility experiences.

My favourite part has been the collaboration. We’ve built together Covid responses on a first-class platform, getting feedback from multiple backgrounds, points of view, and cultural perspectives. The connections across Europe are helping us develop innovative and inclusive projects.

Many student governance positions are offered, from Student Congresses to Edinburgh’s new Una Europa Student Network. Roles in these structures encompass Student Board membership, leadership positions and student representatives. These student connections create well-linked student communities, amplifying their voices and perspectives across the Alliance.

In the next phases, students will continue to enjoy exclusive opportunities to connect with Europe as traditional mobility paths are eroded elsewhere.

Una Europa is a very fulfilling initiative. I have been able to take a lead in laying the foundation of projects from which future students will benefit”.
