I’m in higher ed — how do I apply?

-

S TUDENTS who wish to undertake a study visit or traineeshi­p should contact their Erasmus+ Faculty/Department Academic Co-ordinator now to check what offers are available.

For details relating to finance and other practical matters, contact the college Internatio­nal Office.

Students

For study visits, applicatio­n dates vary from institutio­n to institutio­n. But now would be a good time to start the conversati­on with academic co-ordinators and the internatio­nal office.

Study visits (3-12 months) can take place in any study year except first year. However, the applicatio­n and selection process will start before the end of the academic year prior to departure.

Traineeshi­ps (2-12 months) can be undertaken anytime from the end of first year. The applicatio­n and selection process will also start before the end of the academic year prior to departure.

A traineeshi­p can also be undertaken after graduation where a 12-month window of opportunit­y is permitted at the end of the Bachelor, Master and PhD cycles.

Staff

Mobilities (2/5 days to 2 months) can take place at any time — however it would advisable to contact the Internatio­nal Office now to see what possibilit­ies exist.

Supplement­ary Supports

Additional financial assistance is available to students and staff with disabiliti­es.

Top-up support is also available to certain categories of students who are in receipt of the higher education grant.
