ERASMUS+ CALL FOR PROPOSAL

Erasmus+
Call for Proposals 2016

Erasmus+ offers opportunities for higher education institutions and their staff, researchers and students.

Higher education institutions in the EU's partner countries throughout the world can benefit from financial support:

• To send and host students and staff for short-term mobility, with scholarships and grants.
• To be part of a university partnership offering integrated study programmes - Erasmus Mundus joint master degrees -which will also award EU-funded scholarships.
• To develop capacity-building projects based on multilateral partnerships with institutions from other countries. These are available to institutions from certain regions only - Southern Mediterranean, Eastern Europe, Western Balkans, Russia, Iran-Iraq-Yemen, South Africa, Asia & Central Asia, Latin America and the ACP countries (Africa-Caribbean-Pacific)
• To participate in Jean Monnet activities to foster EU studies.

Take part as a higher education institution

To take part and obtain financial support it is necessary to create links and/or associations with higher education institutions from Programme Countries. Those countries are: all 28 EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Turkey. Countries in the rest of the world are considered Partner Countries.

Higher education institutions from Partner Countries can apply:

• Directly, submitting an application to the Executive Agency EACEA, to coordinate a Capacity-building project, or to participate in Jean Monnet activities.

• Indirectly, through an application submitted by a higher education institution from a Programme country:
  
  • with which they sign an inter-institutional agreement for student and staff short term mobility (International Credit Mobility), or
  • which is the leader in the consortium offering a joint master degree programme, and where the partner-country institution is a partner or associated partner (Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees), or
  • which coordinates a capacity-building project, where the partner-country institution is not the coordinator (Capacity Building projects in the field of Higher Education).

Take part as an individual

Thank to Erasmus+, students and doctoral candidates from partner countries can obtain EU-funded scholarships to spend part of their studies in Europe or to follow integrated master programmes.

Individuals cannot apply to the Erasmus+ Call for Proposals. They can find out more about scholarship opportunities from their International Relations Office in their own university (credit mobility) or can apply direct to the consortium offering the Joint Master Degree of their choice (Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees).
