The objective was clear: EUA should bring together the strengths of both the Confederation of EU Rectors’ Conferences and the CRE (Association of European Universities), in order to ensure that European universities have a stronger voice and more visible presence throughout Europe and the rest of the world.
Despite early scepticism surrounding this merger, EUA has succeeded over a short period of time in affirming itself as a new association, distinct from its predecessors, capable of setting clear priorities, and much in demand at both European and international levels.
More than 60 new individual members from across Europe have thus joined EUA since April 2001, showing their wish to participate in the building up of a strong organisation.
