The University of Stirling has announced it is to join a prestigious network of European universities focusing on research collaboration.
The Young European Research University Network (YERUN) is a cluster of highly-ranked young universities in Europe that strengthens and facilitates cooperation in the areas of scientific research, academic education and services which benefit society.
The Network represents 23 universities from 15 European countries and as well as promoting strategic collaboration amongst members, the initiative also seeks to increase mobility for students, researchers and administrative staff among its member institutions.
Stirling is one of four new members joining YERUN this month - the Universities of Klagenfurt, Potsdam and South-Eastern Norway have also been welcomed.
