EMUNI network

Since 2008 the University of Foggia has been partner of the EMUNI University Network.. The Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI University) based in Slovenia is one of the six priority areas of the Union for the Mediterranean. It was established as international network of universities (142 members from 37 countries, GA 2009). The mission of University includes: approving the quality of higher education through the implementation of postgraduate (master's and doctorate) study and research programmes, with a special focus on cultural diversity. The Euro-Mediterranean University contributes to the understanding among people and encourage cooperation in higher education, following up on the objectives of the Catania Process and of the First Euro-Mediterranean Ministerial Conference on Higher Education and Scientific Research (Cairo, June 2007). Through the cooperation network of partner institutions and existing universities from the Euro-Med region, the Euro-Mediterranean University is seeking to develop postgraduate and research programmes and thus contribute to the establishment of the Euro-Mediterranean Higher Education, Science and Research Area. Partner Universities are encouraged to make full use of possibilities offered by existing higher education cooperation programmes. Particular attention is being paid to enhancing quality and to ensuring the relevance of vocational training to labour market needs.
