In November 2023, the prestigious four-year European University project, which the STARS EU alliance won in intense competition, officially started. The European Commission appreciated the quality of the project and the cooperation within the alliance and provided STARS EU with a grant of 12.4 million euros. The Silesian University in Opava (SU), which joined the alliance at the end of 2021 as the fifth of the current nine partner universities, has been carefully preparing for the project and has been involved since the beginning of 2024 with a total of 32 employees. The School of Business Administration (SBA) has the largest representation with its 14 employees, followed by the Rectorate, the Faculty of Philosophy and Science, the Faculty of Public Policies, and the Institute of Physics.
