Report from EUA on key principles
By Rita Morais, European University Association (EUA)
In May 2025, EUA published a report outlining five key principles to keep academic careers in Europe both attractive and sustainable. The principles address the 1) the role of professional development, rewards and recognition in shaping careers; 2) the need for academic careers to reflect the diversity and inclusivity of higher education in Europe; 3) the vital role of the institution as a space that balances competition and collegiality; 4) the role and needs of early-career academics as the most vulnerable group of academics; and 5) the links between academic careers and the societal embeddedness of higher education.
These principles are aimed primarily to support higher education leadership and staff in reflecting on their own policies and practices in academic career management.
This report is the outcome of the work of EUA’s Task-and-Finish Group on Academic Careers.
