UNIC – The European University of Post-Industrial Cities – offers an alliance of eight universities from eight European countries: University of Deusto (Spain), Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Germany), University College Cork (Ireland), Koç University (Turkey), University of Liège (Belgium), University of Oulu (Finland), University of Zagreb (Croatia) and Erasmus University Rotterdam (coordinator, the Netherlands).

The universities are connected by a unique identity as universities in post-industrial cities and contributing to often complex post-industrial transitions. The joint mission is to promote mobility, inclusion and impact. UNIC aims to foster a new generation of students who have knowledge and the skills to create societal impact not just within their own university and city but on a European level.
