Why EULIST?

While EULIST initiatives are not exclusively limited to activities linking society and technology, this is a central theme that will be evident in many initiatives developed within the network. Society and technology are interdependent concepts. Society is a major driver of technological change while, at the same time, advances in technology impact social development. To prepare for the Europe of tomorrow, EULIST 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 integration and cross-pollination of STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and social sciences in a broad range of activities.

Towards a European University

The EULIST network is actively taking steps to become recognised as a European University within the European Commission’s Erasmus + programme. The European University Initiative is part of the EU’s ‘Strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training’ and aims to promote new forms of deeper collaboration through transnational alliances.
