By fostering international collaboration and cultural exchange, we equip our community with the skills and global perspectives needed to thrive in a connected world.
What is the Erasmus Programme?
The Erasmus Programme, part of the European Union's Erasmus+ initiative, is a flagship mobility programme supporting education, training, youth and sport. It aims to enhance skills, employability and intercultural understanding through international collaboration and mobility, offering students, staff and institutions a wide range of activities across Europe and beyond.
Erasmus+ contributes to the modernisation of education and training systems, fostering innovation, inclusion and lifelong learning. It helps participants build personal and professional skills, broaden their horizons, and develop a global network.
Institutions holding the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) for the 2021–2027 period can take part in Key Action 1 mobility projects, offering students, recent graduates and staff the opportunity to undertake mobility periods in partner countries or beyond.
