Empowering students, academics and partners to shape the future of Circle U.

The Circle U. Fellow Programme complements the Academic Chair Programme and strengthens the role of students, academics and partners in building our European university. Fellows co-create new courses, research projects and outreach initiatives that connect universities and society.

Working with Academic Chairs and Circle U. platforms — including the Knowledge Hubs, Open Campus, CU.mil, CU.til, CU.ecr and InCU.bator — they promote innovation, enhance collaboration across disciplines and help turn Circle U.’s vision into action.

What do Circle U. Fellows do?

Circle U. Fellows help put collaboration into practice across the alliance. They design and deliver educational activities, contribute to research and innovation projects, and strengthen connections between universities and society.

  • Student Fellows bring the student perspective to new courses and initiatives, helping make learning in Circle U. more inclusive and engaging.
  • Associate Fellows work with partners from business, public institutions and civil society to turn academic ideas into projects with real impact.
  • Global Fellows expand Circle U.’s international reach by promoting exchange and cooperation with partners around the world.

Together, they help Circle U. grow as a living community where students, academics and partners learn from each other and create new opportunities for change.
