Erasmus+ funding for student mobility in Europe

If you are considering undertaking a work placement or an internship in Europe, you might be eligible for the Erasmus+ grant!

International Partnerships Office (IPO) at Regent’s University applies every year for funding from the European Union (EU) to support our students’ mobility. The Erasmus+ programme, managed in the UK by the National Agency (British Council) supports students who go abroad to study or work within the European network.

Eligible countries include all EU state members (Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Croatia, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Hungary, Malta, Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden) as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Turkey and Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia

Eligible students:

    • Registered on a degree programme (UG or PG) at Regent’s University London
    • Must have their Internship or work experience recognised as part of a degree course or it must be relevant to the career objectives
    • Must obtain approval by academic tutors or the Careers Team
    • Must complete and return all mandatory paperwork to the IPO in good time

      Eligible work placement/internship:

    • Must be relevant to your degree subject or career objectives
    • Must be at least two months (60 days) in duration
    • Should take place in an eligible country that is different to your country of origin or residence – the purpose of the funding is to support and encourage you to experience working abroad not at home
    • Cannot exceed 12 months of Erasmus funding in one academic cycle (i.e. during your BA degree you can undertake either SPA, PLP, work placement or a combination of all for up to 12 months in total)
    • Cannot take place in an organisation that is (co-)owned / (co-)funded / (co-)created by you or owned or run by your relatives
    • Cannot take place at EU institutions and other EU bodies including specialised agencies (their exhaustive list is available on the website https://europa.eu/european-union/about-eu/institutions-bodies_en; organisations managing EU programmes such as Erasmus+ National Agencies (in order to avoid a possible conflict of interests and/or double funding)
    • Must be agreed either by your academic tutors or the Careers Team in advance
