Una Europa is an inclusive, international community of students. All UCD undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD students are invited to get involved. Una Europa opens up your university experience by giving you the chance to meet, work with and learn from students at 11 universities across Europe.
As the leaders and problem-solvers of tomorrow, students are invited to shape the University of the Future. A host of student-led and student-centered activities run throughout the year, open to all interested students at UCD. See below for details.
Students are represented throughout the Una Europa alliance and invited to take on central roles in the alliance’s governing bodies.
UCD students are represented on the Una Europa Student Board. The Student Board comprises two student representatives from each member university of the Una Europa alliance.
The Student Board’s role is to act as a unified voice for all students across the alliance and to promote Una Europa initiatives and opportunities to their local student communities. The Board works together to tackle problems students might be facing and act as a link between students and Una Europa staff.
