Duration of the Erasmus + Program: 2021-2027 (2027/2028 – the last academic year covered by the program).

By the decision of the European Commission, the WSEI University holds the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) and fully participates in the implementation of the decentralized activities of the ERASMUS + Program Action 1. Educational Mobility.

ERASMUS + EXCHANGE PROGRAMME FOR STUDENTS AND STAFF

Erasmus + (duration period is 2021-2027, the last year is 2027/2028 academic year) encourages student and staff mobility for work and study, and promotes trans-national co-operation projects among universities across Europe. Undergraduate students, graduate students, academic staff and administrative staff can all participate.

Experience abroad contributes to enriching students’ academic knowledge and professional competences, support their personal development, forges a common European identity and also makes mobility of young people during their lifetime real, which is a central part of the programme. Learning abroad equips individuals with a range of competences, including language skills, which are increasingly valued by employers. Erasmus + also benefits students who do traineeships in companies. By temporarily working in a company abroad students gain a better understanding of other economies as well as the chance to develop specific skills. Erasmus + also funds intensive programmes, which bring together teachers and students from different EU higher education institution. These short study programmes encourage the multinational learning of specialist subjects and provide students with access to academic knowledge which is not available in a single one institution.
