The League of European Research Universities (LERU) is a consortium of European research universities.
The League of European Research Universities (LERU) is an association of research-intensive universities. Founded in 2002, as a partnership among twelve multi-faculty research universities, in 2016 it expanded its membership to twenty-three.
