Erasmus Study Programme
The European study programme, ERASMUS+, has been running since 2014 and aims to promote education, training, youth and sport in the period up to 2020. Erasmus+ offers more than the classic student exchange programme as it brings together under a single name, Erasmus plus, seven preceding EU programmes that facilitated international educational exchange and international cooperation as well as supporting the EU's programme for education, training, youth and sport 2014-2020.
The projects that make up the programme do not just cater for university students, but also provides apprenticeships for students of various subjects and those who work in education and training.
Erasmus student mobility for study programme, part of Erasmus+, allows higher education students to spend a period, from three to twelve months, studying at a foreign higher education institution that has signed a bilateral Erasmus+ agreement with the student's home institution.
Erasmus students:
- receive funds from the programme according to their situation
- can take courses and make use of the facilities at the host institution without needing to pay other enrolment fees
- are guaranteed that their study at the host institution will be recognised by their own thanks to the ECTS system (European Credit Transfer System).
All the information that is required for University of Turin students to participate in the programme can be found at the Erasmus for study page on unito.it. (in Italian)

However, you must contact the relevant office at your own higher education institution to initiate the programme.
The Erasmus Traineeship international mobility project is another of the opportunities that fall under the European ERASMUS+ programme. The Erasmus Traineeship gives students the opportunity of carrying out an apprenticeship with companies and both education and research centres in countries that participate in the programme. The project also provides funds to cover some of the student's expenses during the traineeship.
The project is considered an educational traineeship experience.
For University of Turin students, please consult the Department's Erasmus Traineeship page (in Italian) for details on how to apply.
If you are not a student at the University of Turin, more information on the project can be found on the Erasmus Traineeship page. However, you would normally apply for the project through your own higher education institution.
University of Turin students are invited to contact the Department's Erasmus Commission (in Italian), for any specific information that they require.
The University's Erasmus Commission is responsible for defining guidelines for the entire Erasmus programme, but they pay particular attention to teaching and educational aspects.
The Department organises meetings to inform students of the opportunities, including international exchanges, that are open to them. The dates of these meetings are published in the announcements section (avvisi) of the Department's academic programme website. (in Italian)
