THE NEAR EU PROJECT - Bologna Resource Centre
2016 - 2019
The overall aim of the NEAR-EU project is to broaden the field of European integration studies by incorporating the domain of higher education in the research and activities of European Study Centres. The project will develop an inter-regional, collaborative academic space to enhance the study of European higher education policy and academic internationalization. The project intends to establish Bologna Resource Centres (BRC), for the study and research of European HE, within and outside Europe and to create a nexus among them. These BRCs will evolve into a network of prominent academic units in the field of European Studies to further deepen the academic discourse on European HE policy and the EHEA. This globally spaced network will include the non-EU partners- Israel, Singapore, Canada and New Zealand and the EU members- Germany, Slovenia and Greece.
