  • Do I have to seek out the host entity or does the UV seek it out for me?

  • What is the minimum and maximum duration for receiving the Erasmus Traineeship scholarship?

    • Minimum duration: 2 months
      Maximum duration financed: 4 months (the duration of the internship may be longer than 4 months, but the extra months will not be financed by the Erasmus+ programme).

  • Should I seek out the host institution or will the UV seek it out for me?

    The search for the host entity is part of the content of the internship and should be the responsibility of the student. The centre's Internship Committee compiles the internship offer where companies in Europe will also be included. This list is made up of the entities provided by ADEIT and the contacts that the placement coordinator or another member of the centre may have. You can ask your mobility and/or internship coordinator to help you.
