Call for the Development of Joint Academic Offers: INGENIUM Pathways

By implementing an INGENIUM Pathway, each INGENIUM partner univeristy is taking a step towards the transformation of higher education. 

The INGENIUM Pathway Framework reflects the INGENIUM European University’s increasingly innovative and open vision towards higher education.

The INGENIUM Pathway Framework can be implemented into standard academic programmes at bachelor or master level that incorporates the opportunity for students to include additional study fields into their regular study programme and to add an international mobility (virtual and physical) component. With the INGENIUM Pathway Programme Model, students can follow an increasingly flexible learning pathway, grow their transversal personal and professional skillsets and increase their international exposure opportunities while pursuing their regular national degree.

The curriculum of this national programme will form the core of their studies. Thereafter, students will be offered the opportunity to incorporate an INGENIUM Pathway into their studies. By joining the INGENIUM Pathway, students can effectively customise their individual study programme while still being guided by the curriculum of the national study programme.

This call is open to all head of degrees (or equivalent) who want to shape Europe’s higher education with increased flexibility for students to create their own study path and put a special emphasis on international learning opportunities.

Each partner university is expected to support at least one application for the implementation of the INGENIUM Pathways. However, the financial capacity of INGENIUM partner universities to support the development and implementation of joint academic offers may vary, resulting in different levels of funding across institutions. Should additional funds be available, more applications may be considered for funding.

There are several measures that will help successful applicants with the realization of their application. Those are several documents created by the INGENIUM European University such as:

  • Successful implementation of INGENIUM Pathways within existing programmes by the beginning of the academic year 2026/2027.
  • Development of a comprehensive INGENIUM Pathway Programme Manual for student use.
