The International Study Abroad Office, headed by Heather Barclay-Hamir, has continuous plans to extend collaborations with European Universities, and CES is integral to those plans. Additionally, the EU Center of Excellence through CES will coordinate closely with other academic units (especially with the McCombs School of Business Center for International Business and Education Research and with the UT School of Law International and Comparative Law Program) to create new exchange programs and to provide funding for students and researchers to take advantage of those programs. CES is currently assisting LBJ in exploring the possibility of developing faculty exchanges in Paris and Berlin.
To further the links with European institutions, the Center, in cooperation with CREEES, will look to develop four new formal institutional links for undergraduate study with European institutions within the first two years of its existence (along with numerous informal links). Our Associate Director, Mary Neuburger, will travel to Europe in the first year of the grant to develop new institutional partnerships with the four universities listed below, and she will seek to expand curricular development programs developed at UT by effective use of video-conferencing and other technologies in these and other partner universities in Europe and the EU:

• 
  Sofia University, Bulgaria
  
• 
  Central European University, Hungary
  
• 
  Charles University, Czech Republic
  
• 
  University College Dublin, Ireland
