Innovating how standardisation is taught in European Higher Education
EDU4Standards.eu is a brand-new research project funded by the European Union under the Horizon Europe programme. Our eclectic consortium brings together the key players in education on standardisation in Europe. Led by Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, the consortium brings together universities, higher education institutes, standardisation bodies and associations, and SMEs.
EDU4Standards started in January 2024 and it will last 3 years. We aim to address these key strategic objectives.
