Students
Students can take part in the following Erasmus+ Mobility programmes:

 

Mobility for studies:
Mobility for studies (SMS) is aimed at undergraduate students who wish to attend curricular units at a European Higher Education Institution (HEI) that belongs to ESHTE's group of partner institutions.
The mobility period must last a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 12 months. 
It should be noted that only undergraduate students in the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th semesters can attend this period of study, although the latter is not recommended.
Mobility for Studies for 2nd Cycle (Master's) students is being considered and analysed so that it can be implemented as soon as possible.  


Mobility for internships:
Mobility for internships (SMP) is aimed at students in Bachelor's and Master's programmes and recent graduates, in the following forms:

Undergraduate curricular internships
Extra-curricular internships
Dissertation, Project or Professional Internship which is the subject of a final report in Master's programmes
Newly-graduated internships (Bachelor's or Master's degree), provided that they have completed their internship within one year of obtaining the diploma for the study cycle they were enrolled in.
The mobility period must last a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 12 months. 

 

Financial support
Each year, ESHTE has at its disposal a number of places funded by European funds under the Erasmus+ programme, depending on the amount of funding allocated to ESHTE per action.  
The amount of the grant is calculated according to the rules and values pre-established in the Erasmus+ Programme, taking into account the country of destination and the duration of the mobility. The amount of the grant is intended to help cover the costs inherent in the mobility programme and is not a guarantee that it will cover all the costs arising from it.   
In the event that there are no longer any mobility grants, it is also possible to carry out unfunded mobility in the form of "Mobility with zero grant".

 

Teaching staff
Teachers can apply for a period of mobility at a European Higher Education Institution with which ESHTE has an inter-institutional agreement.
The mobility period includes teaching classes or seminars, in a format to be agreed upon with the partner HEI, covering a minimum of 8 hours. 
For this purpose, an internal call for applications is opened annually to select teachers who are interested and fulfil the conditions for mobility. 
Each year ESHTE has a number of vacancies available that are funded by European funds under the Erasmus+ programme.  
The amount of the grant is calculated according to the rules and values established in the Erasmus+ Programme, taking into account the country of destination and the duration of the mobility. The amount of the grant is intended to help cover the costs inherent in the mobility programme and is not guaranteed to cover all the costs arising from it.   
There is also fixed financial support for the journey calculated in terms of kilometre distance. 
In the event that there is no longer a mobility grant, it is also possible to carry out the mobility without funding, in the form of "Mobility with zero grant".

 

Non-teaching staff
Non-teaching staff can apply for a period of training in a higher education institution (HEI) or European company. 
The mobility period requires the establishment of a work plan lasting at least one week (5 working days). 
For this purpose, an internal competition is opened every year to select those interested and who fulfil the conditions for mobility. 
Each year ESHTE has a number of places available that are funded by European funds under the Erasmus+ programme.  
The amount is fixed according to the number of days and country of destination, which does not mean that it covers all expenses. 
The value of the grant is calculated according to the rules and values pre-established in the Erasmus+ Programme, taking into account the country of destination and the duration of the mobility. The amount of the grant is intended to help cover the costs inherent in the mobility programme and is not a guarantee that it will cover all the costs arising from it. There is also fixed financial support for the journey calculated in terms of kilometre distance. 
In the event that there is no longer a mobility grant, it is also possible to carry out unfunded mobility in the form of "Mobility with zero grant".
