AUA and European Association of Urology (EAU) Academic Exchange Program

In 1993, the AUA and the EAU began an award program designed to provide young urology faculty with an international perspective on urologic medicine. The program not only allows for the sharing of knowledge and experience but is designed to foster a closer alliance between the AUA and EAU, and assists in identifying future leaders within both organizations. During the odd numbered years, European urologists visit centers in North America, and in even numbered years, North American urologists travel to European host sites.

This reciprocal program includes a 2-week educational experience at academic centers in Europe and attendance at the EAU Annual Meeting. During the exchange, participants observe urologic surgeries/procedures, attend clinics, present lectures and take part in staff activities. The exchanges are "observation only" – participants do not perform hands-on surgery.

Program Requirements

Scholars will spend two weeks visiting European institutions and will attend the annual meeting of European Association of Urology on April 5-8, 2024.
