General Information

The European Union recognises the importance of higher education for economic and social development. Higher education plays a crucial role in producing high quality human resources, in disseminating scientific discovery and advanced knowledge through teaching and educating future generations of citizens, high level professionals and political leaders, who in turn can contribute to better governance and social cohesion.

The Erasmus Mundus - External Cooperation Windows are designed to foster institutional co-operation in the field of higher education between the European Union and Third-countries through a mobility scheme addressing student and academic exchanges for the purpose of studying, teaching, training and research.

Why?
This project has several objectives: to structure and strengthen the relationships between the non-European countries involved and European Higher Education, as well as to contribute to the international training of students, teachers and academic staff.

Who?
Students from our
partner universities and nationals from the non-European countries involved having graduated at one of the universities in these countries, can apply to this project.

Teachers and academic staff will be chosen by the Selection Committee of the Consortium on proposal of each partner university.

When?
Mobilities will begin in 15th July 2009 at the earliest and in 1st September 2010 at the latest, for a maximum duration of 34 months. Click here for more detailed information about the
mobility scheme of this project.

Former Lot 8 is now called Lot 9

Due to a different geographical coverage compared to last year's Call for proposals, the reference number for each lot has changed. This means that the geographical coverage of lot 8t (Kazakhstan)  will now be named Lot 9 with geographical coverage of all central Asia countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan).
