In a snowy but sunny landscape of Finland, the Humanities and Social Sciences Subject Committee was held at the University of Eastern Finland, on the 18th-19th of March. Representatives of ten member universities (Gazi, Lodz, Aveiro, VMU, Luxembourg, Novi Sad, Alcalá, St Petersburg, EHU and EUF) discussed the situation and the latest achievements of their work within the Subject Committee activities.

The Committee has been working on matrices in Tourism, History, History of Art, Political Science and Languages, Literatures and Cultures in English, German and French. With an interest expressed by some partners, work on matrices in Psychology, Media and Communication Studies and Philosophy was also taken into the development agenda. The SC members agreed that matrices should be a flexible tool in order to encourage and not limit the mobility and their acceptance implies an actual recognition of studies taken abroad. The next Subject Committee meeting will take place in in Lithuania on the 27th-28th of October and will combine a regular meeting with a special Tourism group event.
