Erasmus+ with Partner Countries

The European funding programme Erasmus+ offers the possibility of worldwide exchanges of university members beyond the European programme countries. The KA 107 - respectively KA171 - "Mobility with Partner Countries" funding line, established in 2015, supports the mobility of individuals at selected non-European partner universities.
Mobility with partner countries outside of Europe is reserved for higher education in the Erasmus+ programme. Depending on the respective world region, mobility of students, university teachers and university staff to Germany (Incoming) and from Germany (Outgoing) is supported.

The programme is announced every year in autumn. Department representatives have the opportunity to submit a project proposal to the International Office by 30.11.

In funding line KA171, academic cooperation projects with thematic focal points are agreed upon. Staff and student exchanges in these areas have priority.
