ERASMUS

Erasmus, the EuRopean Community Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students, is the Higher Education part of Socrates, the EU's education programme. With Erasmus, you could study for 3-12 months in another European country and you may receive a grant towards the costs.

Objectives

The purpose of Erasmus is to improve the quality of higher education and strengthen its European dimension. It does this by encouraging transnational cooperation between universities, fostering the European mobility of students and teachers, and contributing to improved transparency and academic recognition of qualifications and studies throughout the European Union.
