Una Europa Chairs

The visiting professors, or Una Europa Chairs, are expected to carry out research, to teach in physical, virtual or blended mode and – optionally – to design activities for and with civil society. The positions are foreseen for a short fixed-term period (less than one year) and funded by an external stakeholder. Hosted by one of the eight Una Europa partners, the individual Una Europa Chair holder delivers his or her activities at the host university, but carries out mobility activities (physical or virtual) to at least 2 additional Una Europa universities.

Teaching

• ‘Traditional’ teaching at university or schools;
• Adult education;
• Digital formats such as webinars or MOOCs.

Research

• Joint publications;
• Joint applications for funding;
• Seminars, workshops, conferences;
• Joint evaluation of proposals

New ideas and creative re-combinations of these options are warmly welcome and we strongly encourage the involvement of non academic partners or companies.

We are piloting the Una Europa Chairs initiative in the Una Europa focus areas. We are actively seeking fundraising opportunities with potential funders. The main topic and focus of the Chair's activities are to be defined by the funder, in close collaboration with the Una Europa Self-Steering Committees.

Are you interested in supporting our collaboration in the Focus Areas by contributing (financially or conceptually) to the Una Europa chairs?

Are you interested in applying to work in another field or at another Una Europa partner?

As more detail on the calls for funders and calls for applications becomes available, we will keep updating this website. In the meantime, you are also invited to contact us with your questions and reflections.
