Erasmu + and European Union logos

The Department of International Relations and Regional Cooperation (SRICR) informs you about the mobility opportunities offered to  teaching staff and BIATSS, within the framework of the Erasmus+ program.

Mobilities can be dedicated to teaching (Teaching Staff or TS), or at trainingThey constitute an important lever for the internationalization of our university.

Teaching mobility funded by Erasmus+ is carried out for teaching purposes in a partner institution. It allows teachers and teacher-researchers to benefit from the opportunities offered by the Erasmus + program. It offers the opportunity to discover partner universities, strengthen links and follow the work of mobile students. 

The Erasmus + agreements that work best are those where the strong commitment of teachers in both institutions allows:

  • mutual knowledge of partner establishments, essential for advising students applying for Erasmus mobility
  • the establishment and maintenance of relationships of trust, the foundation of lasting cooperation
  • the establishment of working and collaboration habits, very useful for the effective management of exchanges
