Erasmus Studies

Erasmus+ student mobility for studies offers a possibility to spend a semester or a full Academic Year in one of the TalTech partner universities within the Member States of the European Union and Third countries associated to the Programme (North Macedonia, Serbia, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Turkey).

During studies abroad, students must take at least 15 ECTS per semester, which are compatible with their study programme. The duration of the physical mobility can be from 2 to 12 months.

When applying for studies abroad within the Erasmus+ programme, students will receive a scholarship and tuition fee is waived in the host university.

Check the requirements and how to apply under Application information.

• Erasmus Student Charter highlights your rights and obligations and informs you about what you can expect from your sending and receiving institution at each step of your mobility.
• For the feedback of former Erasmus students take a look at the results of the Erasmus Student Network (ESN) Surveys. The ESNsurvey is a Europe-wide research project covering different topics concerning mobility and education. It is the largest project of its kind carried out solely by volunteers.

As a new possibility within the Erasmus+ programme, students can also do a blended short-term mobility, combining a virtual period with a physical short-term mobility:

• Contains 5-30 days of physical presence abroad;
• Contains a virtual period before or after the physical mobility; 
• Must receive at least 3 ECTS.

As part of short-term mobility, you can participate in Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) organized by one of the partner universities of TalTech.

For PhD students, besides the blended mobility, students can carry out a short-term doctoral mobility (5-30 days) without the virtual period. In this case, the 3 ECTS requirement is not applicable. 

IMPORTANT:

• Student must fulfill the main and additional requirements;
• Short-term/blended mobility has to be related to your studies;
• The basis of the short-term/blended mobility is an Erasmus+ cooperation agreement between the home and host university. This means, only mobilities, within TalTech Erasmus+ partner universities can be funded. Before applying, make sure to check if the host university is TalTech’s Erasmus+ partner, and if the agreement covers your study field, your study cycle and if there are any available places. Should you need assistance and more information about a specific partner university, please contact mobility@taltech.ee

As a new possibility within the Erasmus+ programme, students can take part in the international dimension, which involves third countries that are not associated to the programme.

Students must find a host university that is willing to host them and receive a Letter of Confirmation. Based on the Letter of Confirmation, TalTech has the opportunity to sign a one-time cooperation agreement with them, which grants the student a scholarship for the student mobility.

Letter of Confirmations has to be sent to the Mobility Centre before the application round. Regular application process must be followed. See more information about the requirements and how to apply here.

NB! There is a fixed budget for International Dimension, meaning TalTech can process a limited number of applications on a first come first serve basis. See scholarship information here.
