Learning Mobility of Individuals

Higher education student and staff mobility between Programme and Partner Countries

The Erasmus Programme (European Region Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students) is a European Union (EU) student exchange programme established in 1987. Erasmus+, or Erasmus Plus, is the new programme combining all the EU's current schemes for education, training, youth and sport, which was started in January 2014.

Erasmus + is designed to graduate students

The Erasmus + between UPB and UFF, that is from Bucarest and Niteroi started in October 2016 and ends in September 2022.

The aim of the Erasmus + (IC / UFF-Politehnica University from Bucharest) project is to encourage the internationalization of doctoral programs by suporting Brazilians students in another country of the European Union, in this case in the Polytechnic University of Bucharest (Romania).
