You've probably already guessed it: in higher education, the portmanteau of globalisation and localisation means that locally relevant education and research integrate global developments. In other words, it is about serving the local needs of the labour market and at the same time educating future professionals who are capable of acting and having an impact in a globalised world.

In fact, this also goes hand in hand with the internationalisation of universities. It is therefore a key topic for the future-oriented design of curricula and research at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences – just as it is for our European University Alliance EURECA-PRO. With the Education & Research Days from 3rd to 5th February 2026, our partner, the Hasselt University in Belgium, is organising an international forum for exchange and learning among experts. Have you already gained concrete experience or applied a proven method? Then pass it on and submit a contribution to one of the four tracks by 15th August 2025. Of course, the conference is also a valuable training opportunity for which you can register from 13th October. 

You can find more information on the topics and programme on the conference website.
