Partner with Universidad Europea to Deliver High-Impact Missions Proposals

Universidad Europea de Madrid is currently seeking committed and forward-thinking partners to join a strong international consortium and co-develop high-impact proposals under the EU Missions programme, with a particular focus on Climate Change, Soil, and Cancer, and with the aim of strengthening its participation in EU-funded projects.

The European University of Madrid (UEM), founded in 1995, is a well-established higher education institution offering more than 200 academic programmes across all fields of knowledge, including undergraduate, master’s, doctoral, and lifelong learning programmes.

UEM delivers education in multiple languages through both on-campus and online formats, spanning disciplines such as health and life sciences, engineering and STEAM, business and communication, law and humanities, education, creative industries, and vocational training. All official programmes fully comply with national and European regulatory standards.

Academic excellence and continuous improvement are core pillars of UEM’s strategy. Its robust quality assurance system ensures the ongoing enhancement of teaching, research, and institutional performance.

UEM’s commitment to quality is reflected in the accreditation of its programmes by prestigious international bodies such as NAAB, RIBA, WCPT, ACBSP, and Europe Active, as well as institutional recognitions including EFQM 500+, QS Stars, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, Madrid Excelente, and Exercise is Medicine on Campus (Gold Level).

Beyond education, UEM is strongly research-driven, with a clear focus on innovation, societal impact, and knowledge transfer. The university hosts numerous research groups working in areas aligned with the EU Missions, including health, sustainability, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, engineering, education, social sciences, and law. Its researchers are actively involved in national and international projects, contributing to scientific advancement and real-world solutions.

Collaboration is at the heart of UEM’s ecosystem. The university maintains close ties with industry, public authorities, research centres, and academic institutions, fostering interdisciplinary cooperation and the co-creation of innovative responses to complex societal challenges. Through its doctoral programmes, UEM also supports the development of early-stage researchers in a dynamic, international research environment.

UEM is an active member of international networks and consortia, promoting researcher and student mobility, knowledge exchange, and access to advanced research infrastructures. Its commitment to innovation is further reinforced through specialized centres and state-of-the-art laboratories, supporting cutting-edge work in fields such as biotechnology, AI-driven solutions, and sustainable engineering.

By combining academic excellence, applied research, and a strong collaborative culture, Universidad Europea offers an experienced, reliable, and impact-oriented partner for ambitious consortia aiming to address Europe’s most pressing challenges through the EU Missions programme.

With a strong track record in European research and innovation, Universidad Europea de Madrid has contributed to over 18 EU-funded projects across FP7, Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, and other EU programmes, covering diverse fields such as architecture, sport sciences, cancer, entrepreneurship, circular economy, sustainability, aviation, artificial intelligence, and STEAM.
