These exchanges traditionally take place and depend on the availability of European funds. They are supported by an economic endowment, thanks to the Erasmus+ scholarships provided by the European Union and the Spanish Ministry of Education.
Erasmus+ is the European program in the fields of education, training, youth and sport.
A unique program that aims to enhance job prospects and personal development. It also seeks to support our education, training, and youth systems in providing teaching and learning that equips people with the skills needed for the current and future job market and society.
Erasmus+ aims to modernize and improve higher education in Europe and beyond. It offers various opportunities to students worldwide, helping them enhance their skills and employment prospects.
The ERASMUS+ programme ALSO MANAGES MOBILITY WITH UNIVERSITIES OUTSIDE EUROPE.
