2013年，「歐洲學生聯盟」（European Students’ Union）適逢成立30週年，目前由隸屬於39個歐洲國家的47個國家級學生會所組成，會員學生人數超過1,100萬人，是一個政治組織，以保障歐盟學生的權利、維護學生受教品質為宗旨，目的在促進歐洲高等教育學生在課程與學習、教育、社會、經濟與文化等各方面的權益。本文主要在探討「歐洲學生聯盟」的興起與發展，以及「歐洲學生聯盟」的會務運作與重要計畫。目前「歐洲學生聯盟」執行中的計畫主要有「探求學生的品質」、「經援學生的未來」及「共享增強與保障品質的實踐成果」，另有各項夥伴計畫。預期未來「歐洲學生聯盟」會對歐盟、歐盟高等教育，以及世界青年未來的發展扮演更積極的角色。「歐洲學生聯盟」的發展對我國高等教育也深具啟示作用。
