Abstract

On such a divisive issue as European Union (EU) membership and consequently the post-Brexit relationship between the United Kingdom and the EU, it is unsurprising that Theresa May’s government has been torn between a hard and soft Brexit. As of June 2018, there is still no indication of which approach will prevail, putting at risk UK universities’ participation in the Erasmus+ programme, which has provided, amongst other things, opportunities for over four million Europeans to study, train, and volunteer abroad since its inception. Full access to EU research funds is also at risk. Universities cannot depend on the UK government’s help in securing the frameworks allowing for continuity. In such a context, universities have started to use their limited resources to secure bilateral international and European links to foster research collaboration and both staff and student mobility, post-Brexit.
