In connection with EAIE 2025, which takes place in Gothenburg, JU invites existing and new partner universities to a partner day to showcase our campus and city.

 

Together with five other universities in western Sweden: University of Gothenburg, Chalmers University of Technology, University of Borås, Halmstad University and University of Skövde, JU is hosting EAIE, which takes place in Gothenburg September 9-12 with the theme GO-Create, focusing on collaboration, innovation and co-creation. In connection with the conference, JU invites to a partner day and dinner.

The partner day is open to invited partner universities and guests from JU.

What is EAIE?

The European Association for International Education (EAIE) is a non-profit organization that aims to bring together expertise on international education issues and strengthen global cooperation in education. The annual EAIE conference, held in a different European city each year, consists of two distinct parts: an education fair and a program of seminars, lectures and workshops designed around the year's theme.
