Erasmus Programme

Have you ever wanted to live abroad and experience a foreign culture, meet new people and learn a foreign language?

Have you ever thought about enriching the period of your studies and having better chances while looking for a job in the future?

The ERASMUS Programme is a perfect choice for you!

The ERASMUS programme is a European student exchange programme established in 1987 offering university students a possibility of studying or working abroad in another European country for a period of at least 3 months.

The programme is open to the 27 Member States of the European Union, the three EEA countries (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and to EU candidate countries (such as Turkey).

Each student receives a grant which covers partly the costs of the stay abroad. Students going on exchange under the ERASMUS programme do not pay any university fees. All rights and obligations of exchange students are described in theErasmus Student Charter. One of the basic rights each exchange student has is the full recognition of courses passed successfully abroad by the home university.

In addition, students can improve their language skills by participating in one of theErasmus Intensive Language Courses offered at the host university.

More detailed information on the ERASMUS programme is available at European Commission website

If you are interested in participating in Erasmus, contact the international relations office of your home university and ask about possibilities to go study abroad through the ERASMUS Programme. ESN sections can also be a valuable source of information and advice concerning your study abroad period.
