Intercultural themes, calls for research projects, Interreg projects and those shared with Eucor – The European Campus... Given its advantageous geographical location, UHA focuses its research upon the cross-border, the intercultural and the international.

Research taking place within Eucor – The European Campus.

In the very heart of Europe – here at the European Campus research is undertaken and monitored before moving outside the bounds of the universities.

Thanks to its status as a European Territorial Cooperation Group (Groupement européen de coopération territoriale - GECT), Eucor – The European Campus has enormous opportunities to develop its research within the network. Notably, it has obtained Interreg VA funding having received the go-ahead to develop several significant projects led by the 5 member universities : « Eucor – The European Campus : cross-border structures », « The Upper Rhine Cluster for Sustainability Research » and « SERIOR – Graduate Academy ».

The NovaTris Centre for Cross-border Capability represents the UHA in its projects and coordinates the university’s researchers who are involved in cross-border issues and operations. The objective is to develop cross-border research projects in various domains (security, risk management, sustainability, etc.) and to employ cultural differences as a lever to innovation and creativity at the heart of multicultural research and teaching teams.
