Exchange Programs Related Questions

Erasmus, Farabi, and Mevlana exchange programs are implemented in our university.

Participation of students/staff in Erasmus + mobility activities is provided by higher education institutions where they are students/staff. Higher education institutions schedule their own election process and select the students and staff to be sent. Students/staff make their applications to the institutions where they are students/staff at the time which is announced by the higher education institutions.

No. You can only attend through the higher education institution you enrolled in.

You can only go to the countries/ institutions we have an agreement with. However, the student/staff can lead the higher education institutions they enrolled to make an agreement with the institutions abroad.

Inter-institutional agreements are signed between the faculties/departments of higher education institutions by the authorized persons of those institutions in a way to allow mobility of a certain number of students/staff for a certain period. Although students do not have the opportunity to make inter-institutional agreements, it is possible for them to help the university officials to find institutions to make an agreement. However, agreements cannot be exclusive to a student, even though the student created the basis of the agreement. Each agreement is in the name of the institution and for all the students.

Students can do internships at places recommended by their institutions, also they can find their internship places themselves and apply to those places via the International Office of their institutions. Students who apply to internship institutions recommended by their higher education institution or those who found their internship places will be selected according to the criteria of the academic year they applied.

The academic and administrative staff of higher education institutions who wish to improve themselves and exchange experiences with European colleagues can apply to mobility programs.

The extension of the mobility program will be possible in case of the approval of the student’s request by the higher education institute. If there is enough funding to support the student for one more semester, the student can extend the mobility program with a grant. If there isn’t enough funding to support the student, the student can extend the mobility program without a grant, provided that all the program rules are applied. On the other hand, an extension of the mobility program will only be valid if the students continue their education in the same higher education institution as the first semester. If the student/staff wants to attend a mobility program for the second time in a different country, a new application and selection process is required.

Erasmus mobility program should be completed only in one institution from the beginning to the end. Students/staff should finish their mobility program in the institution they have started. For example, when the student/staff should do their internship for at least 2 months in the same intuition. Otherwise, their internship may not be in the terms of Erasmus mobility program and they may not be given any grant.

No, you need to be a student. On the other hand, a change made in the new semester allows students who graduated recently to attend an internship mobility program. This allows students who have applied to the internship program while they are students to attend internship mobility within one year after their graduation for up to 12 months. If the students want to attend the internship activity after graduation, they should apply to the higher education institution while they are still students. Applications after graduation are not accepted.

Students have the opportunity to benefit from Erasmus mobility activities with or without a grant for a total of 12 months for each level of education.
