International Association of Universities (IAU)
In November, 2012 Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University became a member of the International Association of Universities (IAU).
Eva Egron-Polak, Secretary-General, welcomed our University as a new Member of the Association and expressed their keen interest to work collaboratively with our institution, “...we know that each time a university agrees to join a new association and pay its membership fees, it is making a choice among other priorities. We appreciate your support and commitment to IAU and hope that in joining the Association you will take an active part in its activities and help determine its actions and policies by participating as much as possible”.
The benefits for our University as a member of the Association are as follows:
- International Handbook of Universities at a discount price
- World Higher Education Database (WHED) on CD-Rom
- Free subscription to higher Education Policy
- Monthly E Bulletin
- IAU Horizons: IAU magazine
- IAU Annual Report
- IAU Policy Statements
- Participation in the events organized by IAU.
As a Member of IAU Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University will also have a chance to participate in the LEADHER Program, which supports a truly collaborative learning approach to the professional development of institutional leadership capacities in the area of research management.
Another service that IAU offers its Members is the online access to HERBIB, a database on higher education systems, administration, planning, policy and evaluation.
Finally, IAU launched the Internationalization Strategies Advisory Service (ISAS), which is available at a discount fee to IAU Members.
