ERASMUS AND INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMMES

NABA is committed to developing and promoting opportunities for both students and staff to study and work abroad as part of their academic experience.

Whether you are an incoming or outgoing exchange student, programmes like Erasmus+ and International Exchange give you an opportunity for an amazing educational and cultural experience. Studying in a foreign country will open your mind to new perspectives and will nourish your cultural background.

NABA students can grasp the opportunity to join the International Exchange Programme both in Europe and in extra-European countries. NABA is likewise glad to welcome students from abroad who wants to spend a semester in the Milan and Rome campus.

For information on the International Exchange Programme, please contact: erasmus@naba.it

ERASMUS+

Erasmus+ is a European funded programme that aims to promote and support student mobility. As an Erasmus student you will have the opportunity to spend a period of recognized study or traineeship at a partner institution inside EU countries and will receive an EU financial grant which contributes towards extra costs you may have during your exchange period.

The European Commission has awarded NABA with the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education, which provides NABA with the opportunity to join the Programme and to compete for funds in the Erasmus+ Programme for Education, Training, Youth and Sport for 2014–2020 and 2021-2027. The Erasmus Charter for Higher Education is the requirement for the participation into the Programme and sets the general quality framework for European and international cooperation activities that higher education institution (HEI) may develop within the Programme Erasmus +.

By signing the Charter, NABA commits itself to share this strategy through its website and to respect the qualitative requirements for the international mobility described in the Erasmus Policy Statement 2014-2020 and 2021-2027.

INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE

To enhance its international cooperation in various fields, NABA has set up exchange programmes with countries not participating in the Erasmus+ Programme, which therefore do not receive funding from the European Union. Through specific exchange agreements NABA gives students the opportunity to spend a period of recognized study at several extra-European institutions. Students spending a study abroad period in such countries will benefit from the same conditions as Erasmus students, but will not be entitled to benefit from a mobility grant.
