How does it work?
Erasmus, the European Commission's Lifelong Learning Program (LLP) for higher education, enables you to attend courses or to work on your final project, outside of your country of residence. As an Erasmus exchange-student, you remain enrolled at your home university while spending a few months to a full academic year at Group T, free of charge. The credits you take on while studying at Group T will count towards the curriculum you started at your home university.
