Mobility & International Exchange

Erasmus PhD studies

General conditions of Erasmus+ Programme


The Erasmus+ Studies Programme, programme KA131 2021/27, facilitates students' academic stay at a university in an EU member state or in third countries associated with the Program (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and the Republic of North Macedonia , Serbia and Turkey).

Switzerland has been excluded from participating in the Erasmus + program. To apply for a grant within the Swiss-European Mobility Program fund, it is necessary to contact directly the International Relations Office of the Swiss university of destination. You can consult more information in the website

This call for applications aims to promote the Erasmus+ programme among PhD students at the UAB. The Erasmus+ programme enables posterior recognition of courses taken abroad. This recognition is in accordance with the learning agreement that the PhD students has made with the coordinator of the PhD programme before leaving.

PhD students pay the fees to the university of origin and have free registration at the host institution, where they have the right to the same services as local PhD students, in the same conditions. The host university must make the necessary information available about the stay, the accommodation options and the registration procedure.

The fact of undertaking an exchange visit to the destination university does not give the automatic right to obtain the qualification from that university. The award of places at the destinations of this competition does not necessarily imply the granting of financial assistance.

For the academic year 2024/25, only Erasmus Doctorate stays are offered in short-term format and BIP. You will find the stays in this link.
