The program also included inspiring tours of the CEITEC – Central European Institute of Technology and AdMaS research centers, which showcased cutting-edge research, modern infrastructure, and opportunities for future joint projects in innovation and technology. Gamkrelidze also met with representatives of the Internationalization Office to discuss shared approaches to mobility and global engagement. The Student Council took part in activities aimed at ensuring that the student voice continues to play a key role in shaping the future of the alliance.
The entire week was guided by the motto “Beyond the Cooperation” – a pursuit of ways to take collaboration among member universities beyond administrative frameworks and to create new shared values. As Natia Gamkrelidze noted: “Cooperation between the countries has been established. Now we must find ways to go beyond administrative collaboration, raise positive awareness among students and academics, and set strategic priorities.”
The EULiST alliance brings together ten European universities, employing more than 20,000 staff members and educating approximately 200,000 students. Its motto, ‘linking society and technology,’ emphasizes the connection between society and technology. Among other things, it provides a platform for sharing expertise, best practices, and creating synergies in inter-university cooperation.
