EULiST

European University – We trust science

LUT University is a member of the EULiST (European Universities Linking Society and Technology) alliance.

EULiST is a European university alliance that links society and technology through interdisciplinary education, research, and innovation. Comprising eleven universities across Europe, EULiST builds trust in science, drives the green and digital transitions, and strengthens social cohesion.

EULiST is one of the 73 university alliances involved in the European Universities Initiative. 

EULiST lives its mission to form a European University, based on European values, a common identity and responding to key global challenges, such as climate change, digital transition and the lack of social cohesion. 

The alliance recognises the need to educate individuals who understand both the technical issues we are likely to face and the social context and dimensions for which technological solutions are designed. With this as a basis, EULiST will foster the integration and cross-pollination of STEM disciplines, social sciences and humanities in a broad range of activities.

A more sustainable, globally engaged Europe

In EULiST, universities combine strengths in technology and impactful research to propose an approach that focuses on innovative, yet practical solutions that can be implemented quickly. 

Informed and driven by the exchange of ideas between society, science, and technology, EULiST supports inter- and transdisciplinary learning, research and outreach. EULiST boosts challenge-based learning to train future generations of students, researchers, scholars and life-long learners to build a more sustainable and globally engaged Europe. 

A joint European university offers students the opportunity to hand-pick what they want from ten different universities and take advantage of a joint virtual campus. For researchers, it means even better opportunities to create networks and apply for funding.
