About the Network

"Combining world-class academic excellence with societal engagement and impact" is the motto of the Aurora Universities Network. At the end of October 2019, the University of Innsbruck joined the network, which was founded in 2016 on the initiative of Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and now includes a total of nine members from all over Europe.

These are: Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (NL), University of Iceland (IS), University of East Anglia (UK), Universität Duisburg-Essen (D), University of Aberdeen (UK), Université Grenoble-Alpes (F), Universitat Rovira i Virgili Tarragona (ES), Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II (IT), and the University of Innsbruck.
