ACEEU • Accreditation Council for Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities

ACEEU is an ENQA Affiliate.

The Accreditation Council for Entrepreneurial and Engaged Universities (ACEEU) is the only globally-operating quality assurance body with a focus on acknowledging engagement and entrepreneurship of universities. As such, ACEEU strives to usher in a new era for higher education by evaluating, supporting and igniting the potential of HEIs on their road to third-mission excellence. Founded within the University Industry Innovation Network (UIIN) in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, ACEEU has become an independent entity with its headquarters in Münster, Germany. Under its palette of services, ACEEU offers accreditation for entrepreneurship and engagement on institutional and divisional level (faculty, school or department), provides advisory services for institutions aiming to advance their third-mission operations, and engages in EU-funded projects to push the boundaries of current knowledge in entrepreneurship, engagement, innovation, sustainability and digitalisation in higher education.
