About the Programme
- The ERASMUS+ Programme is the largest programme for European cooperation in the field of university education. Currently, nearly all European universities cooperate with each other through this programme.
- The ERASMUS+ Programme is available in the Czech Republic to all universities, i.e. even non-university higher education institutions.
- The main target groups of the ERASMUS programme are students, teachers and non-teaching staff. Students can obtain a grant to study in one participating country for 3-12 months, and teachers and other university staff have the opportunity to receive a grant within the exchange of teachers, joint preparation of study programmes and training or shadowing employees.
- The Erasmus+ Programme is prepared for the 2014 – 2020 period.
