Tiivistelmä
The aim of this paper is to present how offerings of online language courses for a new European
university can be planned and created in co-operation between several universities and universities of applied sciences from different European countries.
The work is being done within the framework of Ulysseus European University Alliance. The aim is to
provide the learners in the Ulysseus community and beyond two foreign languages in addition to one’s
mother tongue. Alongside the online language courses, there is an option to plan and offer other language related activities to support student and staff mobility.
Ulysseus European University Alliance is created by six universities and universities of applied sciences: Université Côte-d’Azur (France), Università di Genova (Italy), Universidad de Sevilla (Spain), Technical University of Koŝice (Slovakia), Haaga-Helia University of Applied Sciences (Finland) and Management Center Innsbruck (Austria).
This paper presents the language programme created by the partner universities as well as explains the process of how the work is being done. The paper also covers the advantages that the co-operation entails as well as potential concerns that might appear.
