Dear EUNIS Members, Friends and Visitors,
Welcome to the new EUNIS website, launched today. We hope you will like it and enjoy it; we believe it will meet your expectations. By changing the previous layout to a more service-oriented one, we wish to enhance the focus on our mission and on our offerings to the HEI community.
Check the lively sites of EUNIS task forces linked with the social media and feel invited to join their activities. Notice the new, convenient layout integrating information on EUNIS events, such as Annual Congresses and Rectors’ Conferences. Read our news, enjoy and get involved.
This website was designed and implemented in a very short time by a team from Umeå University lead by Johan Bergström and supported by the EUNIS marketing group. I would like to express my gratitude to all engaged in this important task.
Not all of the anticipated functionalities are already introduced and some information may be still missing — if you noticed any deficiencies, or have any suggestions, please do contact us at webmaster@eunis.org .
Once more we wish you a fruitful and enjoyable journey through our EUNIS world!
Jan Madey
