Our work

CIVIS is pioneering a bold and ambitious vision for the future of European Higher Education. We are a civic university at heart, placing engagement with communities and regions at the centre of our mission.

Our work is collaboration-oriented, bringing together universities, students, and partners across Europe and beyond to create shared opportunities for learning and innovation.

We are a global initiative with strong local roots. While we connect internationally, we remain deeply anchored in our territories, regions, and communities. Our work seeks to embody the ideals of multidisciplinarity, multiculturalism, and multilingualism, fostering diversity in knowledge, perspectives, and languages.

Together, we are committed to addressing the pressing challenges of the 21st century. Our alliance is impact-driven, promoting innovation and social transformation. We strive to create an inclusive, sustainable, and responsible space where education and research serve the common good.

Testimonials

Earning a University degree within the framework of CIVIS will enable the student to gain experience from the educational reality of three different countries and to have a qualification valid in those three different countries

The idea was to create a CIVIS-based network between laboratories interested in using spatial omics technologies. It was the seed funding from CIVIS-UNIL that brought us together, which ultimately led to this successful grant application
