Press Release: EUR 600,000 to boost Higher Education Cooperation between the EU and Australia and New Zealand

High levels of interest are expected by the European Commission for the third EU-Australia and the first EU-New Zealand Pilot Co-operation Programme in Higher Education. The programmes' objective is to set up institutional cooperation at post-graduate level (Masters), focusing on international curriculum development and student mobility. This will be achieved through the development of higher education institution consortia between the EU and Australia, and between the EU and New Zealand. The Consortia will develop a joint study programme that will allow students to do part of their studies abroad
