opportunities they offer!

The Compostela Group of Universities (CGU) is a prestigious 20 year-old international association
of higher education institutions aimed at fostering cooperation and promoting dialogue in all
fields of knowledge. It was created as an initiative of the University of Santiago de Compostela,
and currently brings together 66 universities from 28 different countries.

The CGU organizes activities focused on the different groups of the university community: it offers
opportunities to participate in international projects (funded by the European Commission or
initiatives between its members), international training and professional development (through
Stella and Stella Junior Programmes) and worldwide recognition and promotion (International Prize
Grupo Compostela-Xunta de Galicia, Video Contest for Students, publications, etc.). Besides, it
provides access to a diverse and wide database of universities and sets up links with other
networks, enterprises and official institutions.

Please, download the Compostela Group’s Newsletter for Staff or their Newsletter for Students to
find targeted information for you about these activities. Further details on the Group and its
initiatives are at www.gcompostela.org, through noelia.martinez.cagiao@usc.es or following the
