Project description
In pursuit of excellence in research and innovation
The 4EU+ European University Alliance brings together six well-established, public European universities to strengthen cooperation in teaching, education, research and administration. In line with the alliance's overall visions and strategies, the EU-funded TRAIN4EU project aims to develop long-term joint strategies on research and innovation. More specifically, it will expand and boost support for researchers as they expand the limits of knowledge, and ensure that this knowledge helps society address the challenges it is facing. The project will draw on systematic methodology and share and co-develop innovation and ideas across the alliance.
Objective
TRAIN4EU+ is rooted in the 4EU+ alliance’s ambition to strive for excellence in all aspects of our roles as comprehensive, public research-based and excellence focused European universities. Specifically, this proposal will be a transforming effort in our ongoing work to improve and expand how we i) support our researchers as they continue to expand the limits of knowledge and ii) ensure that this knowledge helps society address the challenges of our times.
We will do this by pursuing five objectives. These are: i) We will find new ways to improve - individually and collectively – our support structures for enhancing quality and impact of R&I; ii) We will foster a culture of co-learning and co-innovation across the consortium based on a thorough best-practice assessment; iii) We will pilot selected transformative measures within different modules within the project life time; iv) We will push boundaries by pinpointing and highlighting drivers and facilitators of, as well as barriers and obstacles, to transformative change, v) We will strive to scale up impact, in collaboration with other alliances, and through dissemination and communication to all stakeholders, including targeted events for policy makers, to ensure wide uptake and exploitation of results.
To pursue these objectives, we rely on a systematic methodology to uncover best practises and lessons learned across R&I support functions, to stakeholder involvement, and to share and co-develop innovations and ideas for transformative action across all six universities in 4EU+. We implement this methodology in a concerted effort s across our six core work packages that each relate to the relevant transformation modules. An ambitious dissemination and outreach effort will ensure our learnings are made available for policy makers, fellow universities, civil society, business and other stakeholders; thus providing invaluable input to the ongoing effort of preparing the European universities for the future.
