Erasmus+ for incoming students

Erasmus+ is the European Commission’s flagship educational and training programme for higher education students, teachers and institutions. It was introduced to increase student mobility within Europe to enable them to study or do a traineeship abroad. Over the past years Erasmus+ has flourished throughout its development, evolving through different phases, and now it also supports individuals in higher education and companies interested in lecturing in a university in another country.

Erasmus+ exchange programme for students and staff

Erasmus+ Program (duration period is 2021-2027, the last year is 2027/2028 academic year) encourages students and staff mobility for work and study, and promotes transnational cooperation projects among universities across Europe. Undergraduate students, graduate students, academic staff and administrative staff can all participate.

Experience abroad contributes to enriching students’ academic knowledge and professional competences, support their personal development, forges a common European identity and also makes mobility of young people during their lifetime real, which is a central part of the programme. Learning abroad equips individuals with a range of competences, including language skills, which are increasingly valued by employers. Erasmus+ Program also benefits students who do traineeships in companies. By temporarily working in a company abroad students gain a better understanding of other economies as well as the chance to develop specific skills. Erasmus+ Program also funds intensive programmes, which bring together teachers and students from different EU higher education institutions. These short study programmes encourage the multinational learning of specialist subjects and provide students with access to academic knowledge which is not available in a single one institution.
