The European University Association is currently looking for member universities to take part in two Quality Assurance Thematic Groups in 2027.

EUA’s QA TPGs provide participating universities with an outstanding opportunity for peer learning and exchange of experiences, while contributing to the Association’s wider activities and policy work on this crucial topic.

For the 2027 round, EUA offers two themes that are aligned with the broader topics of flexibility in learning and institutional governance:

  • Assuring quality in flexible learning pathways
  • Strengthening institutional governance through quality assurance

Further information about the groups is available in the full call document.

The deadline for applications is 30 October 2026.

The main objectives of EUA’s Quality Assurance Thematic Peer Groups are:

  • to discuss and explore practices and lessons learnt in organising and implementing internal quality assurance processes in European universities;
  • to contribute to the enhancement of internal quality assurance by identifying key considerations on the selected themes that will be shared with EUA’s wider membership.

The groups provide participating universities with an opportunity for peer-learning and exchange of experience, while contributing to EUA’s policy work on quality assurance, e.g. in the context of the Bologna Process.

The work of these two groups will also feed into the 2027 edition of the European Quality Assurance Forum (EQAF), organised by EUA, EURASHE, ENQA and ESU.
