Membership Policy
Partners are carefully selected according to a detailed analysis based on a number of parameters: previous relationships, institutional profiles, geographic diversity, potential synergies, excellence, technical capacity, complementarity, etc. The most important priorities include: long-term partnerships, stable, balanced, proactive and efficient international networks and agreements with institutions which, if European, duly accredit adherence to the objectives of the EU’s Modernisation Agenda for Higher Education Institutions.
Geographical Policy
A logical process of analysis of the opportunities and risks involved for the internationalization of the university is followed for the selection of geographic areas. The areas in which the institution has more experience are the EU, Latin America and North Africa. In recent years a gradual process of geographic diversification has allowed closer relations with North America, Asia, especially South Korea, China, and Oceania. The development of this diversification strategy has led to the exploring of new relationships with universities in countries of particular geostrategic interest in Asia, Oceania and South Africa
