ERASMUS+
In ERASMUS+, study-related internships abroad can also be funded:
- Study abroad can also include an internship period, which is eligible for funding, provided that the internship takes place under the supervision of the host university in the process. The internship period must be included in the Learning Agreement for Studies.
- Internships can be funded in addition to and independently of the ERASMUS study visit in another European country.
Conditions for funding are, among others, that the internship lasts at least 2 months and is within the ERASMUS funding quota. Internships in companies of all kinds are supported, EU institutions and organizations that coordinate EU programs are excluded.
