Incoming Mobility Students Opportunities

Erasmus+ Programme - International Credit Mobility - KA 171 | Students Opportunities


The EU’s Key Action KA171 programme, International Credit Mobility (ICM), enables both academic staff and students in the higher education sector to take part in mobility experiences outside Europe.

The aim of this action is to facilitate the implementation of mobility projects consistent with the internationalisation strategy of higher education institutions by expanding the range of possible destinations, to attract students and staff to European universities, supporting them in competing on the global higher education market, whilst at the same time broadening the range of possible destinations for European students and staff by opening up to countries in the rest of the world.

The general rules of the Erasmus+ Programme are set out in the Official Guide.

The Erasmus+ KA171 Mobility Programme enables students to attend courses and workshops and work on their degree theses, allows staff to carry out teaching and research activities at partner universities, and enables technical, administrative and library staff to undertake training activities. Erasmus+ KA171 involves non-EU countries with which the European Union maintains cooperative relations established through specific agreements (instruments) provided for by the European Commission – Partnership (PI), European Neighbourhood (ENI), Pre-Accession (IPA), Development Cooperation (DCI) - or according to the European Development Fund (EDF).

How to apply
If you are a student or staff member at one of these partner universities, contact your university's International Office for information on mobility calls.
