We thus marked an important moment for the Alliance and a concrete step towards the diversification and internationalization of learning forms in European higher education.

For a week, students participated in short-term courses (microcertifications) supported by teaching staff from Romania, Spain and Germany. The meetings took place in the UTCB classrooms, but also outside them:

One of our partners, the @universidadcatolicavalencia (UCV), recently held its graduation ceremonies, recognising the achievements of hundreds of graduates from undergraduate and master's programmes.

The event celebrated not only academic success but also personal growth, diversity, and the capacity to transform society. Eight ceremonies were held, divided by faculties, at the Valencia Conference Centre, where each graduate's name was proudly called to receive their sash, symbolising recognition and effort.

โœจ Special highlights included speeches by student representatives and the Rector, the heartfelt applause of graduates to their parents and families  for supporting them throughout all these years, and the warm applause from the lecturers as their students completed this important stage.

๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ‘ Congratulations to all UCV  graduates! This milestone marks  the beginning of new challenges and opportunities โœจ, and we are proud to walk alongside you as part of the EU-CONEXUS European University Alliance.
