MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE EUCLID CONSORTIUM

Note: Effective 2009, the Euclid University Consortium was renamed Euclid Consortium to avoid confusion between the Consortium and EUCLID (Euclid University).

Summary: EUCLID (Euclid University) is a degree-granting institution, whereas the Euclid Consortium (previously called Euclid University Consortium) is a group or network of universities created in 2005 and which is not itself degree-granting. EUCLID (Euclid University) was created as a member of the Consortium (2008) and the commitment to support the member universities is unchanged.
