Who We Are
Welcome!
Greetings from the new board of EU-reka for the 2023/24 academic year! We’re thrilled you’re here!
We are passionate about giving you the best experiences in your LLMs, whether it be through social, academic or career events, or out annual Brussels trip in the spring. Whatever your cup of tea, we have something for you! If you’d like to join one of our committees to help plan these fun events, please don’t hesitate to sign up. Alternatively, becoming a member is just as rewarding, as you’ll have direct access to all of our activities – don’t wait too long to become a member as registration will be closing in the new year.
