External Programs & Policies
For the Erasmus+: we are always keen to hear from Departments or individuals wishing to establish a new Erasmus partnership. All such partnerships are subject to a Bilateral Agreement, indicating the subject area, the number of student/staff places on the exchange and the level (PhD, undergraduate, etc). The first point of reference is your academic contact in the University of Crete &/or the University's Departmental Coordinators. The University aims to establish strategic, long-term partnerships.
Erasmus Mundus is a worldwide cooperation and mobility programme which provides support through 3 Actions to:
- higher education institutions that wish to implement joint programmes at postgraduate level or to set-up inter-institutional cooperation partnerships between universities from Europe and targeted Third-Countries;
- individual students, researchers and university staff who wish to spend a study / research / teaching period in the context of one of the above mentioned joint programmes or cooperation partnerships;
- any organisation active in the field of higher education that wishes to develop projects aimed at enhancing the attractiveness, profile, visibility and image of European higher education worldwide.
