International Credit Mobility (ICM) Scholarships at University of Minho 2023

Date:

The Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility (ICM) Scholarships are part of the broader Erasmus+ program, which is an initiative of the European Union designed to promote international cooperation and mobility in the field of education, training, youth, and sport. The ICM Scholarships specifically focus on supporting the mobility of students and staff
between higher education institutions in Europe and partner countries outside of Europe.

Key points about the Erasmus+ ICM Scholarships:

  1. Mobility Opportunities: These scholarships provide opportunities for students and staff to study, teach, or train abroad at a partner institution in a different country. This can include undergraduate and graduate students, doctoral candidates, and academic or administrative staff.
  2. International Cooperation: The program promotes collaboration and the exchange of knowledge and expertise between European higher education institutions and partner institutions in various regions worldwide.

The International Credit Mobility (ICM) is part of the Key Action 1 of the Erasmus + Program and allows a HEI in a Programme country to send/receive students, teaching and non-teaching staff to study, teaching and training missions to/from an HEI in a Partner country.

UMOVE(ME) is the institutional project of UMinho under ICM, which allows UMinho to receive/send students, teaching and non-teaching staff from/to several partner countries.

Application Deadline: The last date to apply for the scholarship is 31/05/2023

Value

ICM scholarships include two types of financial support: Stay Allowance and Contribution for Travel. The total value of the scholarships varies according to the country where the
mobility takes place. It should be noted that Erasmus+ grants are not subsistence grants, but mobility grants, which are intended to bridge the gap between the standard of living of the home and the host country. Thus, Erasmus+ grants are not intended to cover all of the students’ normal subsistence expenses, but rather the additional costs incurred in
completing a period of study in another country. Participants cannot benefit from other EU funded scholarship

Additionally, you should contact your Academic Coordinator at your home University in order to get information/guidance on the academic viability of performing a period of mobility in the University(ies) of your choice while safeguarding eventual academic and language requirements.
