For the Ulysseus alliance, it is our common vision to become a best-practices model and an attractive European University. We strive to enhance seamless and climate-responsible mobility through intensive cooperation between all consortium members. As a student, you do not only have the opportunity to engage with the expertise of one or two universities, but of six institutions.
In 2021, Ulysseus students have the possibility of being part of the first Ulysseus Summer Experience – taking place from June to August. Offers include online and onsite courses in different areas taught by experts from the Ulysseus community. Courses, ranging from current topics of interest to business related contents to various language trainings, there is a range of subjects to suit everyone.
