Erasmus+ Programme

Erasmus+ at FSMVÜ

Erasmus is a European student exchange programme established in 1987, offering university students the possibility of studying or working abroad in another European country for a period of at least 3 months and maximum 12 months. The name Erasmus is given to the memory of the Dutch Renaissance humanist Erasmus (1469–1536), who had been a student and lecturer in various European countries.
