Funded through the\u00a0<strong>Unite! Seed Fund for Teaching and Learning<\/strong>, the\u00a0<strong>Unite! Sustainable Mobility Forum (U!SMF)<\/strong>\u00a0launched in the summer semester of 2025 and now brings together around 120 master\u2019s students from the Unite! alliance and the EIT Urban Mobility Master School.<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to promote a European perspective on\u00a0<strong>sustainable transport<\/strong>\u00a0and foster critical reflection on the intersection of\u00a0<strong>mobility<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>climate action<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>digital innovation<\/strong>. Hosted on the Unite! Metacampus platform, the forum carries up to\u00a0<strong>12 ECTS credits<\/strong>\u00a0and is aimed at students in engineering, urban planning, mobility research, transport, traffic, and related disciplines.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"cross-cutting-expertise-shared-debate\" tabindex=\"0\">Cross-cutting expertise, shared debate<\/h2>\n<p>Designed as a\u00a0<strong>recurring, year-round initiative<\/strong>, the U!SMF combines academic lectures, interactive discussions, and insights from industry and policy stakeholders. Professors from seven Unite! Universities lead the seminar series, sharing expertise in sustainable transport systems, traffic engineering, logistics, and AI.<\/p>\n<p>By inviting external experts and the general public, the forum aims not only to strengthen knowledge exchange within the alliance but also to contribute to the wider European discourse \u2013 acknowledging the transport sector as a key lever in achieving climate goals.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"whats-in-it-for-you\" tabindex=\"0\">What&#8217;s in it for you?<\/h3>\n<p>For participating students, the forum offers a unique opportunity to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>gain insights from leading academics and practitioners in sustainable mobility<\/li>\n<li>engage in critical discussions on real-world challenges in transport and urban resilience<\/li>\n<li>earn up to 12 ECTS (per year) credits within an internationally recognised setting<\/li>\n<li>build cross-European networks with peers, researchers, and industry partners<\/li>\n<li>strengthen intercultural and interdisciplinary skills relevant for careers in science, policy, or the mobility industry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cThe Unite!
