Undergraduate offers that connect students and society
CIVICA brings together 50,000 students & PhDs and 10,000 academic staff from eight world-renowned higher education institutions across Europe. The alliance is working towards a true European campus that is both physically and digitally connected.
At the undergraduate level, CIVICA recently launched the Engage Track, a multi-campus interdisciplinary bachelor experience with a focus on civic engagement. Drawing on existing programmes at the Stockholm School of Economics and at Sciences Po, the CIVICA Engage Track offers students the opportunity to combine academics with civic commitment, thus internalising values like responsibility and sustainability through concrete action from an early stage on.
The CIVICA European Week is both a stand-alone learning event and a central element of the CIVICA Engage Track. This short-term immersive programme aims to raise students’ understanding of social challenges and work together to address them.
