Student must apply at their home university in accordance with timing and procedures established by the sending institution.
Academic staff can either undergo a formal selection or call, or be directly nominated as the referent of the agreement. The nominated faculty must have agreed upon a teaching project of at least 10 hours, a training one, or a mixture of both, with an UniTrento faculty of the same academic area.
Full transparency in the dissemination and selection process must be proved by partners, that are asked to send to UniTrento all formal documents relating to the students' selection (emails, screenshots of websites, posters etc). The Declaration of sending institution (see download box at the bottom right of the page) is to be filled out for each mobility participant and attached to the nomination.
Project documentation
Before the mobility starts,
1. students will have to draft their Learning Agreement, while staff will have to fill out their Mobility Agreement (templates available in the download box), signed by both universities;
2. each mobility participant will have to sign with UniTrento a grant agreement with UniTrento to allow the payment of the grant.
Support to mobility participants
Incoming students and staff will be fully supported in the organization of their mobility to Trento by the Mobility/International office and will have access to the same services offered to UniTrento students and staff.
Students will be granted accommodation On campus (up to availability and only for long-term mobility) or informed in how to find one.

Within 2 months from their return, students will have to send to UniTrento the home university transcript of records proving the credit transfer.
In case there is no official recognition in the transcript of records, partner universities are required to fill out the "Credit transfer declaration" document (available in the download box) and send it to UniTrento International Office asap.
Erasmus+ visibility
All activities organized in the frame of Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility (students' selection calls, emails of dissemination, teaching material, and so on) must clearly show the ER+ logo (available in the download box).
Dissemination and information activities will be carried out by partners universities as agreed within the partnership Guide for dissemination (available in the download box).

Sustainability
UniTrento encourages the students to adopt a responsible behavior towards the environment around us. We highly recommend, if you have the chance, to choose an eco-friendlier transport on your way yo UniTrento (using for example the train). Opting for the green travel you will receive up to 6 days of additional individual support to cover travel days for a return trip.
Once you arrive in Trento, we invite you to reduce your environmental impact. Check out our green guide where you will be able to write, in the shared padlet, your own suggestions. And do not forget to visit the university page dedicated to a sustainable international mobility!
