What is Erasmus+?

Erasmus is the EU’s flagship programme for education and training, which has been running since 1987.  Erasmus + student mobility enables students to develop their skills and boost their employment prospects through an international study or traineeship period. 

Erasmus - provides opportunities for students to learn abroad in the following ways:

• Study Exchanges – where a student spends one or two semesters at a partner institution in another European country*.
• Student Traineeships - where students spend a training period at an enterprise or organisation in one of the eligible European member states or participating countries

ERASMUS AND BREXIT 

Please see the following link for information on the current status of Erasmus mobilities to the UK vis-à-vis BREXIT.  At the current time, study exchanges and internships with the UK are not possible through Erasmus, unless the mobility had already started prior to 31 January 2020.  This also applies to staff mobilities with the UK.  Further updates will be sent out as we receive them.
