(The student status lasts until the last day of the examination period of the last semester. For doctoral studies, the semester is from 1 September to 31 January and from 1 February to 31 August each year. So the mobility can last until then, but the recognition of the mobility must take place before graduation. It is the student's responsibility to initiate the mobility recognition process.) |
Students can apply until the end of the last active semester (the last day of the exam period). For doctoral studies, the semester is from 1 September to 31 January and from 1 February to 31 August each year. The traineeship starts after graduation / absolutorium and end no later than 1 year (360 days) from the date of graduation / absolutorium. It is especially recommended for those who do not have compulsory traineeship in their curriculum or would find it difficult to implement during their studies.
|
||
Students choose from the higher education institutions (so-called partner universities) available to them. |
Students independently seek an internship (no university partnership required). Applications may be submitted to any organization or institution located in an Erasmus + program country (see the list of countries in the detailed call for applications), with the exception of the institutions and bodies of the European Union.
During the traineeship, you must work full-time hours per week in accordance with the labor regulations of the host country, which is usually 35-40 hours per week, but a minimum of 30 hours. |
||
Applications for Erasmus+ mobility in Switzerland and the UK can be submitted in the Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility call. |
It is no longer possible to carry out an Erasmus Traineeship in the UK. | ||
Indicative list of the Erasmus+ partner institutions is available here. The list is constantly updated!
Please note that from the academic year 2023/24 onwards, study abroad mobility will only be possible at partner universities for which a credit recognition tool (mobility window/equivalence database) is available in the respective subject field - these tools are currently being developed.
If you have any questions about the availability of a partner university from the list above, please contact Krisztina Milovszky at erasmus.iia@dep.elte.hu.
For more information about the application process contact your Faculty/Academic international coordinator.
Students participating in one-cycle teacher training programme can choose from which major they apply to the mobility, depending on whether the partner institution offers suitable courses for the training. |

VII. Practical matters
Students must obtain all the relevant information on the partner university’s webpage about the offered courses on specific study level and language.
You can get more information about this call, the partner institutions’ study programmes and courses from your Faculty/Academic international coordinator.
Scandinavian universities typically work with an early nomination deadline, so if you want to apply to this country, you should apply as soon as possible. Contact your Faculty/Academic international coordinator for exact nomination deadlines for each university. You can read more about the nomination in the "Nomination" menu item at the bottom of the page.
- general rules for the recognition of studies abroad and the tools (mobility window and equivalence database) that ELTE uses from the 2021/22 academic year to support students in ensuring that as many subjects completed abroad are recognised as compulsory courses as possible, so that the student would finish their studies on time without the need of an extra semester (Section I),
- the credit recognition procedure and the administrative tasks and deadlines involving the process, which are mandatory for all outgoing students (Section II), and
- FAQ in the topic (Section III).
VIII. Evaluation of the applications
Submitted applications are evaluated by a professional board, stood up by the Institute/Department.
The evaluation criteria are published in the call.
The student might be required to participate at a personal interview after receiving the written evaluation.
General criteria of the evaluation (the list is not in a priority order, there might be other aspects as well according to differing Faculty regulations):
- Language proficiency at the study field,
- Academic achievement,
- Professional awareness,
- Academic excellence or other significant professional achievement,
- Participation in Student Union activities or others at related organizations,
- Participation in a Student Mentor/Buddy System, supporting students.
Those students who have never participated in the Erasmus+ Programme have priority during the evaluation process, however, we strongly encourage the re-application of former Erasmus + students too.
Based on the above points, the Institutes/Departments nominate students to the Erasmus Board (for study tours, internships and financial grants).
Those students, who were nominated by the host university but were not granted financial support by the Erasmus Board, might also travel to participate in the Erasmus programme, but they need to fully cover their costs. These students are named “zero grant students”. Thanks to this status, students are free from any payment at the host university, i.e. zero grant students do not need to pay tuition fee and any costs of registration, exams, laboratory and library.
The traineeship applications are approved by the Students and Staff Mobility Committee within two months of submission (the evaluation time might be extended during the summer and winter holidays). Supported students will be informed by e-mail no later than 1 week after the Committee’s decision.
IX. Nomination
Students who have applied for study abroad mobility are nominated to the partner institution by the departmental/faculty coordinators. The nomination deadlines vary from institution to institution, so you might be conditionally nominated by your departmental/faculty coordinator before you are officially informed of the outcome of your application. The host institution always confirms whether or not they can receive you for the semester and the programme that you have applied for, so you might be contacted by the host institution before the official notification of your application result. We would like to remind you that any nomination sent before the Students and Staff Mobility Committee’s decision on your Erasmus+ application is always conditional and will only become final once your Erasmus+ status has been granted.
X. Intercultural preparation
The intercultural preparation course prepares students for the cultural, intercultural challenges may occure during their mobility period with the help of professors of the Institute of Intercultural Psychology and Education. Read more about the course.
XI. Force majeure
If your mobility fails due to an unforeseeable exceptional situation caused by unavoidable external events (e.g. serious illness) and costs associated with mobility (booking / insurance / flight ticket) have already been incurred, an individual equity claim (force majeure request) can be submitted to cover them.
If you have to interrupt the physical part of your mobility due to an unforeseeable exceptional situation caused by unavoidable external events (e.g. serious illness), you can also submit the individual equity claim (force majeure request) to request your proportional scholarship for the period spent physically abroad and reimburse your extra costs occured due to the interruption. Please note that the monthly scholarship is granted only for the period spent physically abroad.
More information about force majeure and the individual equity request is available here.
