As the new academic year begins, ECIU University invites students to join its latest challenges and micro-modules. Discover over 70 learning opportunities currently open for application and get a unique chance to develop diverse skills for your career, connect with peers and businesses, and make a real impact.

At ECIU University, we offer two kinds of learning opportunities. For challenges, we pick real-life problems society is struggling with – and engage diverse teams of learners to come up with a possible solution by working closely with international businesses, organisations, and local communities.

Micro-modules are short courses aimed at helping students improve their skills, fill their knowledge gaps, and broaden their perspectives on various subjects – be it climate change or intercultural studies.
