Outgoing mobility

Broaden your horizons and gain international experience
missouri_1

The department of Management (DiPSA) at the University of Bergamo strongly supports students in exploring educational and professional opportunities abroad. Taking part in a mobility programme helps develop intercultural awareness, global competencies, and a more competitive academic profile for both further study and the labour market. 

What you can do abroad

Students enrolled in bachelor’s and master’s programmes at DiPSA may access a wide variety of international mobility experiences, including: 

  • study mobility: attend one or two semesters at a foreign partner university under Erasmus+ or bilateral agreements; 
  • traineeships and internships abroad: gain professional experience in companies or organisations across Europe through Erasmus+ Traineeships; 
  • short-term programmes: join international summer or winter schools, often with intensive training in specific subjects; 
  • Joint and double degree programmes: follow an integrated study path across two universities and earn a double academic qualification. 

All activities are designed to be recognised within the student’s academic path through Learning Agreements and course validation procedures. 

Erasmus+ study mobility

The Erasmus+ programme is the main mobility scheme for DiPSA students. It offers the opportunity to spend a study period at one of the university of Bergamo’s many partner institutions across Europe. Selection takes place annually through public calls, and students receive a grant to help cover travel and accommodation expenses.

Erasmus+ traineeships

Students can also take part in curricular internships abroad with Erasmus+ Traineeships. These experiences may last from 2 to 6 months, and are carried out in companies, research centres, or institutions in eligible programme countries. 

Before departure, students must finalise a Learning Agreement for Traineeship approved by DiPSA and the host organisation. Erasmus+ grants and additional support for students with special needs are available.
