Education

Nati Mansilla Ovejero

Our goal in ENLIGHT is to create an open space for learning to gain access to the best courses and teaching offer in all disciplines across our nine ENLIGHT universities, for the different levels, from Bachelor to PhD. Some key aspects of the ENLIGHT offer are interdisciplinarity and challenge-based. In this context several ENLIGHT short programmes have been developed, see the offer. Next to that, all ENLIGHT partners have high-quality courses on offer, which are showcased in the online Course Catalogue.

For staff involved in education there are also possibilities for professional development and support in the interaction with peers in ENLIGHT to develop educational initiatives together. There are also some funding opportunities for that.
