European Student Card Conference 2017

 

The ESC conference took place on June 6, 2017 at the University of Münster in Western Germany. It presented the current state in the technical development of a European student ID card that could give access to services as diverse as library use, student restaurants, copy machines, or local transportation – one card for different services and all this with cross-border functionality.

Additionally to the comprehensive presentation of the idea of a European Student Card, the conference focused on the opportunities in Student Services, and looked at the challenges which might come along with its implementation. The participants received an overview about the current state of development, the progress of the EU-project and had the possibility to see the first prototype of a European Student Card. The practical workshop allowed the verification of technical requirements.

The conference was aimed at leaders in higher education who are interested in the digital future of student cards, and was particularly useful for directors of IT services or student services in European institutions of higher education.
