European Network for Studies in Sports Science (EN3S) https://ufr-staps.unicaen.fr/formation/mobilite-internationale/european-network-for-studies-in-sports-sciences-en3s/ was started in 2009 and Lithuanian Sports university joined the network activities in 2017. The network unites European Sports Science universities, universities of applied sciences, institutes and faculties from France, Romania, Finland, Norway, Spain, United Kingdom, Germany, Check Republic, Italy and Lithuania. Lively meetings are organized by the network annually at a different partner institution, where the aim of the discussions is about the enhancement of staff and students’ mobility, the expansion of cooperation and designing new sport science projects in research and education.
The coordinator of the network is Université de CAEN NORMANDIE in France. The aim of the network is to promote students’ and staff mobility, European consciousness and academic knowledge as well as research related to sports science in their broad sense. That is why this network is willing to stimulate mobility through Erasmus+ program exchanges in particular and to undertake joint research and study programmes as well as curriculum development.
