CIVIS
CIVIS is a European Civic University formed by the alliance of 11 leading research higher education institutions across Europe. CIVIS aims to create a truly unique European interuniversity campus where students, academics, researchers and staff will move and collaborate as freely as within their institution of origin. We will develop a deep level of European integration, involving joint learning pathways, development of complementary research facilities and diverse degree pathways.
