Where do you want to go? Mobility for academics
General information
Academic staff may go to Circle U. universities to teach or for training. It is also possible to combine teaching and training activites when going abroad.
A stay abroad can strengthen your competencies, give you a stronger international network and contribute to developing and strengthening the international learning environment as well as the cooperation between Circle U. partner universities. At the same time, as a teacher and employee, you can help inspire students to study or do internships abroad.
For teaching, the main purpose of the stay must be to teach.
For training, these are examples of stays that might be eligible for support:
- Participation in staff training weeks, partner days, international weeks
- Job shadowing: staff spending a few days with colleagues at a higher education institution to learn from them and share best practices
- Seminars and workshops at higher education institutions
- Lab training
- Methods and summer courses
- Study visits for observation
Please note that participation in conferences is not supported.

You may apply for funding for shorter training or teaching stays at European institutions. The Erasmus+ grant might cover some of your expenses. Please contact your home university for funding opportunities.
