Data for EUA Trends 2024 - European higher education institutions in times of transition

Since 1999, the EUA Trends reports have consistently mapped developments in the European higher education landscape, by presenting comparative data from the perspective of higher education institutions. In the ninth edition of the European University Association’s long-running series, the Trends 2024 report provides an overview of how European higher education institutions have experienced changes over the past five years, due to higher education reforms, and in the wider context of societal, political, economic and technological changes, marked among others by the implications of Covid-19 pandemic and Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Trends 2024 is based on survey data collected in April to July 2023.

Responses were gathered from 489 higher education institutions in 46 European higher education systems. The survey was open to all higher education institutions in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) that provide study programmes in at least one of the three degree cycles (bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral). One response per institution was collected.

The survey addressed the higher education institutions’ perspectives and strategies regarding:

·       The institution and its context

·       The student life cycle and experience

·       Learning, teaching and teachers    

·       Inclusion, equity and diversity

·       Engagement and outreach with society and community 

·       Internationalisation

Results of the survey are published in “Trends 2024 - European higher education institutions in times of transition”.
