The Erasmus+ programme
How to participate
Access to the Erasmus+ programme is through a selection procedure. To participate, read the annual call carefully and check that you meet the requirements which include:
- general requirements to participate: possession of a specified number of ECTS (academic credits) and knowledge of the foreign language required by the partner university you wish to apply to.
- criteria considered for selection purposes; your study plan or thesis topic, level of knowledge of a foreign language, your weighted grade average and other criteria which vary according to the department or centre of your course of study. Each criterion is given a score which is then used to calculate your position in a ranked list of eligible candidates.
Students may take part in more than one Erasmus+ exchange for each study cycle (bachelor’s, master’s or doctorate) up to a maximum of 12 months (24 months for a single-cycle master’s degree).
Consult the Erasmus+ for study call to participate in the programme for the following academic year.
Submit your application using the online procedure.
The ranked list of eligible candidates will be published on the department and centre websites within the time frame indicated in the call.
La graduatoria, quando è disponibile, è pubblicata sui siti dei dipartimenti o dei centri entro i termini specificati nel bando.
Se non sai a quale polo appartiene il tuo dipartimento, consulta la mappa alla pagina dedicata alle strutture.
Scholarships
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 are entitled to receive a scholarship of between 250 to 350 euro a month depending on your destination. In addition, you may receive a supplementary sum of a further 250 euro a month if you qualify as a ‘student with fewer opportunities’ based principally on your income. You will receive 70% of the scholarship at the beginning of the exchange period and the rest when you return.
We invite you to use sustainable means of transport to reach the partner university to limit the impact of your exchange on the environment: you may be eligible for additional funds for your journey and a lump sum contribution. All the information is available on the Green Travel page.
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.
Where can you go?
You can choose a destination from those offered by your department or centre, taking into account compatibility with your study cycle, the foreign language requirements and the area of study.
Destination options may vary from year to year: the list of available destinations is attached to the annual call. Consult the map at this link to view the partner universities for your department or centre.
