Preparatory visits and evaluation visits within the Erasmus+ framework
Are you interested in establishing a new collaboration with a European university within the framework of Erasmus+, or evaluating an existing one? In that case, you can apply for grants for preparatory visits or evaluation visits. The rules for compensation are the same as for teacher and staff exchange within Erasmus+ and funds can be granted for one person from the study programme and one coordinator from the International Relations Office.
Routines for preparatory visits
Planning and anchoring
- Discuss and anchor the visit within your study programme
Digital pre-meetings
- You must have digital contacts/meetings with the intended partner institution before the physical preparatory visit is carried out, to ensure that mobility both to and from the institution in question can function satisfactorily.
- Base the digital meeting on the questions on this page Considerations when establishing international cooperation agreements in education
KI's ethical guidelines for international collaborations must always be followed.
