Erasmus+ European Credit Mobility

European credit Mobility Project (KA131)

The Erasmus+ KA131 (previously KA103) European Credit Mobility Project enables student and staff mobility between UT and its partner institutions within EU member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, North Macedonia, Serbia and Turkey. These countries are referred to as Erasmus+ Programme countries or Third countries associated to the programme.


The Erasmus+ Mobile App is the single point of entry into the Erasmus+ programme, providing a broad range of information, tools and services to help students plan and carry out their Erasmus exchange.

Students can find everything they need to know about opportunities to go abroad with Erasmus+ and check out all the features that are specifically built to facilitate the student experience.

UT aims to enhance career prospects and academic excellence by increasing academic networks and knowledge exchange within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and European Research Area (ERA). To achieve these goals, UT incorporates international experiences into its educational programmes. 75% of students and staff must have the opportunity to travel abroad during their degree programme or once every three years, respectively.

In the last week of November, the UT Mobility-Online team visited University Colleges Leuven Limburg within the Erasmus+ KA131 Staff Mobility Programme. There we met up with colleagues from Windesheim (Zwolle) as well. We shared our knowledge and experiences regarding Mobility-Online and EWP, exchanged best practices regarding general troubleshooting, learned from each other's process implementations and discussed how to ‘join forces’ concerning our shared wish list for developments in Mobility-Online.

Blended Intensive Programmes 

Blended Intensive Programmes (BIP) are short, intensive programmes that combine a short-term physical mobility abroad with an online component. They are funded within the KA131 European Credit Mobility Project.

  • About Blended Intensive Programmes

    Blended Intensive Programmes (BIP) use innovative ways of learning, teaching and training for students and staff, including the use of online cooperation. At UT, the programmes are developed and implemented by UT in collaboration with at least two partner institutions from two Erasmus+ Programme countries. Each year we are able to support two BIPs through a one-time development contribution and scholarships for 5 outbound mobility participants, provided all conditions are met.

    During Blended Intensive Programmes, groups of students or staff (at least 15) undertake a short-term physical mobility abroad combined with a compulsory virtual component facilitating collaborative online learning exchange and teamwork. Participation in the programme is officially recognised by the transfer of at least 3 ECTS credits. The duration of the physical component is between 5 and 30 days, but there is no limitation on the duration of the virtual component.

    If you wish to develop a Blended Intensive Programme or partner with an institution that is developing one, please contact the Institutional Erasmus+ Coordinator to check the availability of funds for mobilities. Funds are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
