Our work is rooted in our vision of strong universities for Europe and guided by our mission to support our members in excelling in service to society.
EUA represents over 850 members, including individual universities as well as the bodies that represent them at national level (i.e. national university associations/rectors’ conferences).
EUA is governed by a Board, Council and General Assembly, supported by a Secretariat, and guided by a variety of working groups and committees.
