What are UNILO’s aims?

Why?

the EQF and the QF-EHEA through the common
“language” of learning outcomes, hereby
supporting lifelong and lifewide learning
 Support dialogue between and within education
systems, also on an international(ization) perspective
 Build bridges with the labour market and the world of
work, making higher education relevant to society
and unfolding its transformative potential
 Make higher education’s offer transparent and
enhance quality assurance
