NEWS & EVENTS

Are you looking to broaden your academic horizons, earn ECTS credits, and connect with peers across Europe without spending an entire semester abroad? ENLIGHT is excited to announce the launch of 24 Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) starting in early 2027. Combining flexible online coursework with a short, immersive on-site mobility period at a partner university, these programmes offer a unique opportunity to gain international academic experience tailored to your schedule.

Our upcoming offer features a diverse array of innovative topics across multiple disciplines. Students can explore cutting-edge fields ranging from artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and biomedical research to climate change adaptation, language diversity, and European heritage.

Applying for an ENLIGHT BIP is a straightforward process handled directly through your home university. First, explore the full offer to find a programme that fits your study plan and check credit recognition with your academic advisor. Once selected, submit your application at your home institution before the deadline. Selected participants receive guidance from both their home and host institutions, with Erasmus+ mobility grants frequently available to support travel and living expenses during the physical exchange.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to internationalize your degree and network with leading scholars and students from across the ENLIGHT network. The registration deadline for all upcoming programmes is November 15. Ready to take the next step in your European educational journey?

On 14–15 September 2026, representatives from across the ENLIGHT Alliance gathered in Bratislava for the two-day workshop "ENLIGHT JPs: Strategy to Action." Organised by the Joint Programme Priority Team, the meeting brought team members together to align strategies, simplify administrative processes, and expand joint study options for students across Europe.

The ENLIGHT University Alliance actively participated in the EAIE 2026 Annual Conference and Exhibition, held from 8–11 September in Glasgow, Scotland, at the Scottish Event Campus (SEC). Aligned with this year's theme, “The Rhythm of Revolution,” ENLIGHT representatives and colleagues across member universities led interactive sessions, presented poster projects, and engaged in knowledge-sharing with the global higher education community.

We are pleased to announce that registration is open for the 12th ENLIGHT and Arqus Alliance Open Science Ambassador Webinar on "Coordinating the dissemination of Reproducibility in the Netherlands", with Dr. Michiel de Boer (UMCG / University of Groningen).
