International | Mobilità in Ingresso

The International Office of the University of Salerno is pleased to invite you to join the 7th Edition of its International Staff Training Week from May 27th to May 31st, 2024, “Globalizing Education: Exploring Multiculturalism and Boosting Mobility. A Focus on European Alliances”

The program will focus on the Internationalisation of Higher Education Institutions, and applications from staff working on this issue are particularly welcome.

We believe that this Staff Training Week offers a unique opportunity to enhance your skills, share experiences, and foster collaboration with international colleagues. It promises valuable insights into the global landscape of education. We are delighted to welcome teaching and non-teaching University Staff with an international perspective, facilitating mutual learning, the consolidation and strengthening of current relations, and the creation of new partnerships.

Participants will have the opportunity to explore the beautiful town of Salerno, situated between the famous Amalfi Coast (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and the Cilento Coast, with its unique natural landscape. Additionally, they can visit Paestum, one of the most significant archaeological sites in Italy. Integration among participants will be fostered through our social program, including networking lunches and visits that offer the chance to discover the excellence of our territory.

Living and accommodation expenses will be covered by participants.

We will select up to 35 participants, with a maximum of 2 participants per university or country. Selection results will be published on March 26th, 2024.
