Una Europa Student Network | Europe

Get involved in projects with students from across Europe and gain professional experience with an enthusiastic team of peers.

What is the Una Europa Student Network?

Each Una Europa university organises its own student network to facilitate and promote student engagement with Una Europa initiatives at local level. This network is your opportunity to gain professional and leadership skills, and take an active part in shaping what Una Europa can deliver for the student community in Edinburgh.

Altogether, the 11 Una Europa partner universities educate over 500,000 students across Europe! By being a part of the Una Europa Student Network, you'll:

gain valuable skills and professional experience, working alongside staff in Edinburgh and with students across the alliance
be part of a thinktank for European Higher Education and represent the Edinburgh student community in the alliance
develop student-led events and cross-cultural initiatives with peers from across Edinburgh and from other Una Europa member universities.
