Una Europa Student Congress | Dis-/Assemble: Reinventing the University

Freie Universität Berlin

Are you an explorer who loves to get to the bottom of things? Are you curious about what lies ahead? Are you interested in different pathways that can shape our future?

Apply now to join us in Berlin and meet other open-minded students, explore different cultures, and engage in workshops and interactive learning formats that will be co-created by you and tailored around your interests.

 

What is the Una Europa Student Congress?

We're on a mission to build the University of the Future, together. Our annual Student Congress is all about your perspective, voice, and ideas. It’s a gathering where our student community addresses central questions about student life at European universities:

  • Being human in a digital world.
  • Why universities?
  • Future trends in higher education.

The Una Europa Student Congress at Freie Universität Berlin is a place for you to connect with peers from all 11 Una Europa universities and partner universities from Ukraine. Berlin is an open city and a vibrant place for new ideas, which makes it a great setting for the congress as a laboratory of the here and now and a space for creativity and experimentation.

Follow your curiosity and join us in exploring different futures of the university.

Students will come together at the congress to disassemble ideas and understand them from multiple angles. This will be an opportunity for you to apply your knowledge by rearranging individual components. This experience will empower you as students to become co-creators who will jointly assemble a foundation for the University of the Future.

 

Why should I apply?

  • Travel to Berlin and make new friends from across Una Europa’s 11 partner universities and our partner institutions in Ukraine.
  • Learn more about yourself by engaging with others’ cultures, backgrounds, and life stories.
  • Gain practical skills in teamwork through workshops and innovative learning formats.
  • Explore the role of universities in a world shaped by artificial intelligence and social media.
  • Take your time to be creative and think outside the box about future trends in higher education.
  • Make a real impact on Una Europa and help us build a strong foundation for our student community.
  • Learn about Una Europa’s other opportunities for students and how you can get involved.

Who can apply to the Una Europa Student Congress?

To be eligible to attend the Una Europa Student Congress 2024 you must be:

  • Enrolled as a student at one of the 11 Una Europa partner universities, or at one of our partner universities in Ukraine.
  • Currently studying at bachelor's, master's, or PhD level. We encourage any interested student to apply, regardless of field or level of study.
  • Comfortable communicating in English. There is no expectation of perfect fluency, however the highly interactive programme will be delivered in English so you will need to be able to discuss your own experiences and engage with others' experiences in English.
  • Excited to connect with students of all ages, backgrounds, cultural experiences and levels of expertise.

Your university will cover your travel and accommodation costs; however, the process by which they will do this varies for each institution. Please contact your local Una Europa team if you have any questions on costs related to participation in the Congress.

How do I apply?
