Erasmus ed Erasmus+

The acronym Erasmus stands for European Region Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students, a student mobility program promoted by the European Union. Since 2014, this program has been expanded and renamed Erasmus+, including a broader range of educational and training opportunities.

 

Opportunities for Students

During their academic path, students are encouraged to take part in a period of study and/or internship at academic institutions or organizations abroad. This may include:

– Taking exams at the host university
– Research activities for thesis preparation
– Professional internships in companies or institutions

 Destinations

Stays abroad under the Erasmus+ program can take place in both European and non-European countries, offering a wide range of destinations to choose from. This allows students to enhance not only their academic knowledge but also their language and cultural skills.

Benefits of the Program

Erasmus+ offers various advantages:

– Personal and professional development: Improvement of language skills, adaptability and the ability to work in international contextsenvironments.
– Cultural experiences: The chance to live and study in a different cultural setting.
– Networking: Building connections with students and professionals from around the world.

In summary, Erasmus+ represents an extraordinary opportunity for university students to enrich their academic and personal journey through international experiences.

Study and work experiences abroad offer a unique opportunity for personal and professional growth. These experiences allow students to engage with different cultures and environments, enriching their education and fostering the development of language and intercultural skills, essential in today’s globalized world.

Benefits of an International Experience

Language Skills Acquisition

One of the main benefits of spending time abroad is the opportunity to improve one or more foreign languages. Living in a context where the language is spoken daily allows for full immersion, accelerating learning and significantly enhancing language proficiency.

Academic and Professional Contacts

Studying abroad enables students to establish valuable contacts in both academic and professional fields. These connections can be extremely useful for further studies or entering the job market. Building an international network can open doors and opportunities that might otherwise remain closed.

Personal Growth

Interaction with students and professionals from different nationalities fosters significant personal development. This experience promotes open-mindedness, tolerance  and the ability to new situations. Moreover, living in a different cultural context can enrich one’s worldview and contribute to a deeper global awareness.

In summary, study and work experiences abroad offer a range of benefits that go beyond academic learning. They represent a valuable investment for the future, enriching one’s educational and professional path and promoting meaningful personal growth. Anyone who has the opportunity to embark on such experiences should embrace it with enthusiasm and openness to new challenges and discoveries.

Erasmus+ Study Mobility Duration

The minimum duration for study mobility is 2 months, and the maximum is 12 months. For each level of study (bachelor’s, master’s, PhD), each student may benefit from 12 months of mobility abroad for study/internship or 24 months in the case of single-cycle degree programs.

To benefit from the Erasmus grant for study, students must participate in the annual call issued by their home university.

 Erasmus+ Tutors

As part of Erasmus+ mobility for study purposes, the tutor performs several essential roles:

  • Student Coordination: Coordinates both outgoing students (going abroad) and incoming students (coming from foreign universities).
  • Verification and Approval: Verifies the academic validity of the study programs and signs the Learning Agreement, a key document outlining the study plan abroad.

 

Learning Agreement

The Learning Agreement is a mandatory document for students selected for the Erasmus program. Here are its main features:

  • Compatibility of the Study Plan: Before departure, students must agree on their study plan with the Erasmus tutor responsible for the agreement.
  • Being Mandatory: The document is required for students selected for full-time study or thesis research, as well as PhD students.
  • Signature Procedure: It must be signed by the student, the Erasmus tutor, and the host university.
  • Amendments Allowed: Changes can be made, provided they are approved through the same signature process.
