AN INFORMATION DAY ON THE ERASMUS+ MOBILITY PROGRAMME ATTRACTED STUDENTS
An online information day to present the opportunities for student mobility under the Erasmus+ programme for the summer semester of 2021/2022 was accepted with great interest from the students of Varna Free University "Chernorizets Hrabar". It was attended by undergraduate and graduate students from different majors across the country, as well as students from Egypt and Italy. Among the most active were the second-year students from Psychology and National Security.
During the meeting the students received information about the application procedures for the summer semester of 2021/2022; the selection procedures for the applicants; the European universities and companies that are partners of Varna Free University; the amount of funding awarded (Erasmus grant); the procedures for the recognition of the study period; the application deadlines and the possibilities and conditions for re-participation of students who have already studied or practiced under the programme.
Students who have already completed a period of study and practice under the Erasmus+ programme also took part in the meeting. They shared their experience, the positive aspects and the challenges that lie ahead for every future Erasmus student. Sanie Sutlu whois majoring in Law and is currently doing her internship in Turkey, told the students about the importance and significance of practising what you study.
The Erasmus+ programme is an initiative of the European Union that provides students with the opportunity to undertake a period of study at European partner universities without paying academic fees, as well as an internship at European companies, organizations and institutions. Varna Free University guarantees the academic recognition of the study period abroad and provides funding (Erasmus grant) to its students to support them during their mobility period.
Information on the application procedures can be found on the programme's webpage: erasmus.vfu.bg, section "Student mobility".
The places are limited.
The deadline to apply for student mobility for the second semester of the academic year 2021/2022 is 05 November 2021.
