International events, hundreds of student mobilities, new projects and joint initiatives – this is how ECIU life at TUL in 2025 can be summed up in a nutshell. The past months have shown how dynamically the cooperation between TUL and partners across Europe is developing, and how many opportunities the ECIU University offers to both students and staff. 🌍

We warmly invite both students and staff interested in shaping the next editions of the ECIU University Student Ambassador Programme to join a 2-hour online workshop hosted by the WP5 Ambassador Task Force on Wednesday, 15 April 2026.

New offer of summer school for PhD students. Fee applies.

The next Lunch & Learn session will take place online on 11th February 2026 at 12.00-13.00. Join us!
