Circle U. European University Alliance: Université Paris Cité, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, King’s College, London, UCLouvain, University of Oslo, Aarhus University, University of Belgrade, Université of Pisa and Université of Vienna.

Circle U. ambassadors’ missions

Circle U. ambassadors play a key role in bringing the alliance to life within each member university, including Université Paris Cité.
What is their mission? To highlight Circle U.’s opportunities, create content that promotes the alliance and its initiatives, and inspire their peers to get involved! Whether representing Circle U. at events, answering questions, fostering exchanges, or contributing to local projects, they serve as essential bridges for this international collaboration.

Who are they?
