 Erasmus+ mobility for studies

The ERASMUS+ program of the European Union supports and promotes cooperation between European higher education institutions in various fields of academic life. Student exchange and studies at universities in other countries are an important part of the program. This is being organized according to the Erasmus+ cooperation agreements concluded by the International Relations Departments of the universities.

This experience creates conditions for students of science and study institutions (high schools and research institutes) to spend an integrated study period in another country participating in the Erasmus+ program.
The mentioned activity allows you to acquire study, language, and cultural knowledge promotes cooperation between institutions and enriches the educational environment of institutions receiving students, allows you to expand the base of future specialists who have gained experience abroad, facilitates the transfer of credits and the recognition of studies abroad, using the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) or the corresponding credits system.

ERASMUS+ can take place in 27 EU countries, (including Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Serbia, Turkey, and the Republic of North Macedonia) and non-EU countries (regions 1-14, listed in the Erasmus+ program guide, pages 32-33).

• Academic grades of the last semester;
• Motivation to study abroad.

The student's competitive score is calculated according to the formula:

• CS = (average of academic grades x 0.7) + (motivational assessment* x 0.3).
• An additional 0.1 point is added to the competitive score for mentoring international students.
• A student who participates in the Erasmus+ program for the first time at this level of study receives an additional 0.3 points to the competitive score.

If there is a competition for a specific place of study among candidates who meet the mandatory selection criteria and have the same competitive score, a student who has not yet participated in the Erasmus+ program is selected.
*motivational score evaluated by the answers to the questionnaire.

Selected students will be informed via email and will be nominated for the foreign higher education institution abroad. Selected students will submit an application to the university they were nominated, according to that university's requirements for exchange studies.

 Scholarship for students

Students can receive an Erasmus+ grant to cover the costs incurred during their study mobility abroad.

Students receiving zero-grant are also allowed to participate in mobility, for example - students who meet all the eligibility criteria of an Erasmus+ student and use all the benefits of an Erasmus+ student but do not receive a scholarship for mobility. The rules established by the Erasmus+ program also apply to such students receiving a zero scholarship.

Erasmus+ students (both scholarship recipients and non-scholarship recipients) are exempt from tuition fees, registration fees, examination fees, and laboratory and library fees at the host institution, but pay normal fees at their sending institution. The host institution may charge visiting students small fees related to, for example, insurance, student unions, and the use of various materials such as photocopies, and laboratory products, on the same basis as local students.

Students do not pay any additional fees or charges related to the organization or administration of their mobility period, and the payment of the student's national scholarship or loan must not be interrupted during the period spent abroad.

 Mobility of KA 1 students and recent graduates traineeship/internship 

Erasmus+ Traineeship provides an opportunity to do a traineeship/internship in a company or organization located in another Erasmus+ participating country. Internship participants can acquire specific skills, expand their understanding of the economic and social culture of a certain country, gain practical experience in the European Union (EU) organization, and get acquainted with the characteristics of the EU labour market. 

Student traineeships can take place in companies, training centres, scientific research centres and other organizations.

Traineeship for Erasmus+ students is a period spent in a foreign company, training centre, research centre or other organization of a country participating in the Erasmus+ program. Erasmus+ practice gives the student the opportunity to adapt to the labour market requirements of the entire Community, strengthen professional skills, and get to know and expand the understanding of the economic, social and cultural conditions of a specific country.

Nature of the activities

• Performing an internship as part of studies in a foreign company or organization;
• Internship as work experience after graduation in a foreign company or organization (graduate internship);
• The internship mobility of graduates must start and end within 12 months after graduation.

Recent graduates can take part in Erasmus+ traineeship program if they fill the application before the end of their study period (during the Erasmus+ traineeship competition, which is announced by VDA in April each year), although they start their mobility after graduation.

The duration of the Erasmus+ traineeship is from 2 to 12 months. 6 credits (ECTS) are awarded per month.

Each student has the right to use the program for a maximum period of 12 months during each study cycle (bachelor's, master's and doctoral). This period is common for the implementation of all types of mobility (studies, practice during studies and practice after studies).

Since VDA has not yet signed internship contracts with foreign partners, students are invited to look for companies themselves that would agree to accept them with Erasmus status and a scholarship. If you know such a company, ask for a written confirmation that you are accepted for an internship and submit it to the International Relations Department of the VDA during the Erasmus internship competition, which takes place throughout the month of April.

How to find an internship yourself?
• independently searching for foreign organizations of interest on websites or in other independent ways;
• using the help of the staff of the International Relations Department, VDA teachers and practice managers who maintain cooperative relations with foreign organizations. The list of organisations that previously accepted VDA students or that are seeking trainees is here, but you are welcome to choose an organisation outside of this list.
• Through the website for finding internships.

How to participate in the internship competition

In order to participate in the internship competition, you need to fill out the competition form in the news of the international relations department.
The competition is announced in April.
Filling out the form requires the company's consent to accept the practice;

The main criteria for selecting students for Erasmus+ internships:
• the results of academic activities of the previous academic year;
• internship program offered by the host company;
• knowledge of a foreign language;
