Whether you are a resident, a young urologist or an experienced specialist, your career can benefit from an EAU Membership. The EAU supports you throughout your career with programmes for continuing medical education and certification. For young and upcoming EAU members we offer several educational programmes, scholarships and clinical visits. Members have advanced access to the Resource Centre.

For any successful clinician, having the most up-to-date evidence-based recommendations on hand is crucial for the successful treatment of your patients. The EAU Guidelines are unparalleled in that regard, used all across the world. They are comprehensively updated on an annual basis and freely accessible for all members.

Urologists are bound by national and, increasingly, international laws that govern treatment options and patient care. The EAU brings together the voices of medical professionals, researchers, innovators and patients on a European platform to keep urological topics on the agendas of the authorities.

The EAU offers a wide range of events and courses to interact with the best specialists in the field of urology. The Annual EAU Congress is the largest urology-related event in the world where you can network with like-minded professionals.

Our journal, European Urology, has been a prestigious urological forum for over 35 years, and is currently read by more than 20,000 urologists. It is one of the most widely-cited medical journals in the world and, with an impact factor of 17.298, leading in its field. Members have free access to full-text articles. Members also have access to European Urology Focus and European Urology Oncology.

Additionally, the independent EAU Research Foundation conducts clinical trials to add valuable data to the pool of scientific knowledge in Europe. Only as a member you are eligible to apply for grants and funding.
