Core offering

EURECA-PRO delivers transnational higher education through joint master's and doctoral programmes, mobility exchanges, and research collaboration across nine European universities. Its flagship is the Joint Master's in Responsible Consumption and Production (120 ECTS across Montanuniversität Leoben, TU Bergakademie Freiberg, and Universidad de León), supplemented by the Doctoral School, RE-EURECA-PRO research arm funded by Horizon 2020, the ELLA lifelong learning academy, and innovation & entrepreneurship programmes. Educational delivery combines physical campus-based instruction at the partner universities with a Moodle-based online learning platform and Erasmus+ mobility.

Product overview

EURECA-PRO (European University on Responsible Consumption and Production) is an alliance of nine European universities offering a comprehensive portfolio of educational programs and services centered on sustainability and responsible production. The core offerings include joint international master's programs (Joint MSc in RCP across three universities, plus partner-specific programs), doctoral research opportunities through the Doctoral School, and the RE-EURECA-PRO research arm funded by Horizon 2020. Additional services include the self-paced EURECA-PRO Introductory Lecture course, Podcast Series 'Committed to Planet A', Lifelong Learning Academy ELLA, Innovation & Entrepreneurship Programme, Student Council, Alumni Club, and Career Services Centre. The alliance also facilitates mobility opportunities across its nine partner institutions in eight countries. As a higher education consortium rather than a traditional technology company, EURECA-PRO does not operate a software product platform.
