Programmes

Erasmus+ Programme

Erasmus+ is the EU's programme that supports education, training, youth and sport in Europe. Through the Programme, students can participate in various types of mobility, including study exchanges at foreign higher education institutions and traineeships, both of which can last up to 12 months. These exchanges/traineeships provide an excellent opportunity for students to broaden their horizons and gain valuable experience in a new environment. Calls for Erasmus+ student exchanges and traineeships are published and conducted by students’ home higher education institutions (HEIs). Therefore, it is crucial to know that only students enrolled in higher education institutions that participate in the Erasmus+ Programme can take part in Erasmus+ mobility.

Blue Book Traineeship Programme

The European Commission's Blue Book Traineeship programme now accepts applications from non-EU nationals, presenting an exceptional chance to acquire valuable experience at the heart of the European Union. Successful applicants will have the opportunity to work in various departments, where they can actively contribute to a wide range of impactful projects within the EU. Participants will benefit from practical, on-the-job training, guidance from experienced professionals, and a monthly grant, which collectively offers a comprehensive and immersive introduction to the inner workings of the EU.
