Erasmus+

The Erasmus + Programme is a European Union Programme for Education, Training, Youth, and Sport in effect from 2021 to 2027.

The Erasmus Programme enables the mobility of students wishing to undertake a period of studies at another institution with which there is an Erasmus + Bilateral Agreement. The mobility may be of a one-semester duration up to a maximum twelve-month period. 

Erasmus+ also provides higher education students with the opportunity to undertake a curricular, extracurricular, or recent-graduate internship, from two to twelve months, within a working context (SMP mobility). This programme includes specific grants for internships.
