UniTrento also encourages student mobility outside the European Union through agreements with non-European institutions.
This type of long-term mobility programme allows students enrolled in bachelor’s and master’s degrees at UniTrento to spend a semester at a non-European university with which it has an agreement. At partner universities, students can attend university courses and take the course exams.
UniTrento guarantees the recognition of qualifications certified by the host university which have been agreed in advance in the Learning Agreement through the Transcript of Records (ToR).
Access to the Bilateral Agreement programme is through a selection procedure. To participate, read the relevant call and check that you meet the requirements.
Consult the Bilateral Agreement call to participate in the programme for the following academic year.
The call indicates:
- the qualifications required to participate: specific academic requirements (for example your weighted grade average, your year of enrolment) and the level of the foreign language required by the partner university you wish to apply to;
- the criteria considered for selection purposes: your study plan, curriculum and evaluation of your academic and personal motivations. Each criterion is given a score which is then used to calculate your position in a ranked list of eligible candidates.
Destination options may vary from year to year: the list of available destinations is attached to the annual call.
If you pass the selection procedure for the long-term Erasmus+ programme, you will continue to pay your tuition fees to UniTrento: you will not need to pay anything to the partner university during the exchange period.
You will be entitled to a semester scholarship, which varies based on the ISEE value:
- ISEE value > 25,000: € 3,500 ;
- ISEE value ≤ 25,000: € 4,750.
The scholarship will be granted only in the case of physical mobility.
If you are in disadvantaged physical, mental, or health conditions, you can make use of the services provided by the Inclusion Service (in Italian). You can also apply for an additional contribution to reimburse documented expenses, which will be provided at the end of the mobility period.
You will have to pay back your scholarship if you do not take part in the exchange, if you curtail your stay during the first two months or if you fail to earn sufficient ECTS (academic credits) at the partner university.
