Internationalization
Institutions of higher education have made internationalization a priority. The
Ministry of Education and Research of Estonia and the Archimedes Foundation
lead the efforts to increase mobility of scholars and research within and outside
of Europe. The Archimedes Foundation is an independent body established by the
Estonian government in 1997 with the objective to coordinate and implement
international and national projects for training, education, research, technological
development, and innovation.
