Every year UniTrento sponsors 4 Short-Term Programs for International Students - STP4IS, organized in Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programs format (BIP), aimed at strengthening partnerships with international universities, to encourage incoming mobility, to recruit new students, and to make UniTrento known all over the world.

Up to 2 UniTrento students will be allowed to apply only if there are still places available when applications close.

BIP format consists of:

• a combination of physical mobility on campus (minimum 5 days) and virtual activities awarding at least 3 ECTS;
• face-to-face activities, including visits, excursions and a social program;
• interdisciplinary approach, innovative learning, challenge-based education;
• Certificate of Attendance and Transcript of Records with at least 3 ECTS awarded. In order to receive these students must participate in all activities included in the program. Attendance will be tracked daily;
