Universidade Europeia (Lisbon) participated in another edition of NAFSA, the largest higher education fair and conference in the United States. This year the conference took place in San Diego, California and brought together more than 8000 international educators from 100+ nations. The theme “Purpose, Place, and Partnership” fits perfectly in the times of uncertainty that we all live in.
Represented by the Head of International Office, Liliana Rosalino, UEL was part of the Study & Research in Portugal Pavilion, an initiative coordinated by the Portuguese Erasmus + Agency, the Fulbright Portugal and the Luso-American Foundation, which was attended by 17 Portuguese higher education institutions.
The presence of Universidade Europeia in this strategic event reinforces its commitment to building a diverse, intercultural and innovation-oriented academic community. The participation also aims to strengthen existing partnerships, identify new opportunities for academic cooperation and promote institution as a destination of excellence for international students and researchers.
During the 5 days in San Diego, it was also possible to participate in the partner’s days organized by San Diego State University and UC Irvine, which represented two more excellent opportunities for international networking.
