Internship abroad

Erasmus+ allows students or recent graduates to undertake a self-organized and funded internship or placement abroad. These experiences take place in foreign companies or organizations, during which participants will carry out an individual work project approved by the MADE Program before departure.

The internship/placement must last a minimum of two months in a Programme Country of Erasmus+ and must take place in a public or private sector company engaged in economic activity (such as enterprises, training centers, research institutions, foundations, art centers, and other organizations).

To apply, students must submit the required documentation as outlined in the call, including an acceptance letter from the host company specifying the internship/placement period and the activities to be undertaken. The Erasmus Office will assist students throughout this process.

The program provides financial support to help cover part of the expenses incurred abroad during the internship/placement. All mobility periods must be completed by July 31st, 2026.

Applications will be evaluated by a dedicated Selection Committee, which will assess the quality of the projects, artistic works, and language proficiency of the candidates.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, taking into consideration that mobility periods must be completed by July 31st, 2026.
