Next INGENIUM and the Future of European University Alliances: Scaling Impact, Deepening Integration
The first years of the European Universities Initiative focused on building partnerships, governance structures and new models of cooperation. The next phase must turn these structures into changes that reach much larger parts of the university community. Looking beyond INGENIUM, this panel compares European policy and alliance perspectives on what consolidation and scaling should look like, and marks INGENIUM’s transition into Next INGENIUM.
What should European University alliances be able to deliver in their next phase?
- Which achievements of the first funding cycles are ready to be scaled, and which still require experimentation?
- How can alliances move from opportunities for relatively small groups to changing the experience of most students and staff?
- What does genuine institutional embedding require from the member universities themselves?
- How can alliances build long-term operational and financial sustainability beyond successive project cycles?
- What should the European Commission expect from the next phase of the initiative, and what should alliances expect from the European policy framework in return?
