Our mission
Independent universities are an expression of the variety of the European higher education system and support the freedom of choice of students and teachers.
They offer a wide range of study options at the current state of the art in science and didactics.
State-independent higher education institutions offer added value to students and at the same time strengthen the performance of the European higher education system. They help to better solve Europe's technical, economic and social challenges in the context of a globalised world, thus promoting the values of social inclusion, academic excellence, freedom and democracy.
