RUN European University
RUN European University
RUN-EU (The Regional University Network – European University) brings together seven European higher education institutions from six different countries, all committed to a common vision. Together they form the Regional University Network (RUN), the aim of which is to secure economical, societal, cultural and ecological sustainable progress within their regions and among stakeholders.
RUN European University aims to jointly develop cutting-edge teaching, learning and research to meet the future competence needs of the surrounding world. Over the course of the three-year project, RUN-EU will deliver short and flexible student and staff mobilities, create research collaboration and research groups, introduce PhD paths, plan and implement double and joint degrees, and also build joint administrative structures.
In the summer of 2020, the European Commission awarded the European University status and funding to Häme University of Applied Sciences (Finland) and the other six network universities in order to launch the activities of RUN European University during the next three years.
The RUN European University consists of 7 HEIs:
- Polytechnic of Leiria (Portugal)
- Polytechnic of Cavado and Ave (Portugal)
- Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest (Ireland)
- NHL Stenden (The Netherlands)
- Széchenyi István University (Hungary)
- Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (Austria)
- Häme University of Applied Sciences (Finland)
All universities are situated outside the metropolitan areas and they play a major role within their region. Polytechnic of Leiria (Portugal) is the coordinator of the network.
Our students will inherit the future
RUN European University aims to develop high quality teching and reasearch, which develop skills needed in the future societies.
For students, RUN European University creates new possibilities for short, international study modules – and also more traditional study exchange opportunities. We are developing new double degrees, which offer students possibilites to study their degree in two different countries and get a degree certificate from both universities. One of RUN-EU’s ambitious goals is to open up 24 new double degree programmes.
In practice, our objectives are achieved through eight work packages that aim at creating a joint European University.
- Work Package 1: Coordination and Management
- Work Package 2: European Innovation Hubs
- Work Package 3: Future and Advanced Skills Academies
- Work Package 4: European Mobility Innovation Centre
- Work Package 5: RUN-EU Discovery Program
- Work Package 6: Short Advanced Programmes
- Work Package 7: Collaborative European Degrees
- Work Package 8: Dissemination and Sustainablility
All RUN-EU higher education institutions participate in all the work packages and each work package has been assigned a leading responsible university. Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK) is the leader of Work Package 3: Future and Advanced Skills Academies. In addition, HAMK is the co-leader in Work Package 7: Collaborative European Degrees.

There’s no better way to spend the day than prototyping! Today’s prototyping session focused on creating an ultimate workshop for developing future skills. We saw results that included fabulous hats, board games, interactive participation, memorybox and sustainability game. Groups in the afternoon presented ideas of processes, games and products. Tomorrow we will have a final day where students and teachers work together for the final time and then it’s time to head home. @run_europeanuniversity @hamk_uas #runsuperweek #run_eu #runsuperweek #prototyping #futureskills

Usein kehotan opiskelijoita ja kollegoitakin ehkä vähän kuluneesti poistumaan omalta mukavuusalueelta. Itse olen sen tehnyt usein ja aina se on yhtä pelottavaa ja turhauttavaa, mutta myös niin innostavaa sekä palkitsevaa.
🤩 Tällä viikolla olen ollut mukana RUN-EU (The Regional University Network – European University) Super weekissa kehittämässä korkeakoulujen verkostoa ja yhteistä pedagogista ympäristöä. Päivät ovat olleet hyvin mielenkiintoisia, raskaitakin, mutta myös innostavia kun vaan uskaltaa heittäytyä ja hypätä mukaan. Hamkista oli mukava porukka paitsi järjestämässä, myös meitä osallistujia. hamkdf hamkhyvinvointi #run_eu #runsuperweek #opehommia
