Erasmus+
Erasmus+ is the new European programme boosting education, training, youth and sport. Come into force on the 1st of January 2014, it replaces and integrates the Lifelong Learning Programme for the next 7 years. The new programme encloses in a single framework of reference the activities previously part of different programmes and includes also disciplines present in the new field pertaining to European union: sport. 
 In particular, the European Union financially supports international education, training and voluntary opportunities. The main target of Erasmus+ will be university students, apprentices, teachers, trainees and young workers. Through inter-institutional agreements, each University states its wish to cooperate with some other Universities which participate in the Erasmus+ programme, highlighting which type of cooperation will be done. 
 Mobility programmes for students enrolled in Bachelor or Master Degrees are promoted to allow them to attend official courses abroad which will be validated in the home university and to fully or partly develop their final project. The possibility of participating in this programme is intended to take place mainly during the third year of Bachelor Degree (BS), or during the second year of Master Degree (MS). 
 If students pass abroad the exams previously planned with the departmental coordinator, they will see validated the maximum number of credits provided for the full year or semester in which the students do the mobility (around 60 ECTS for a full year and around 30 ECTS for a semester, with a ±3 ECTS tolerance). 
 Note that if the student participating in mobility programme is required to do a more demanding activity, such an effort will be rewarded by higher working opportunities and by the great experience of being in a different social and cultural environment. 
 Partner universities usually require specific linguistic levels in order to accept exchange students. Moreover, with the new Erasmus+ programme the EU – trying to strengthen the transversal skills useful to find an employment (spirit of enterprise, IT and linguistic skills)  – asked all partner universities to put the linguistic requirements needed, while preparing the inter-institutional agreement with the attempt of increasing them to B1. 
 Therefore, Politecnico di Torino in the Bando di Concorso (public call for selections) will indicate all the information regarding the linguistic skills, included whether it is compulsory or not to have a specific linguistic certificate and at what time of the application procedure it must be shown.   
  NOTE: We advise students to put the optional courses in their study plan for the year in which they do the mobility, in order to make the equivalence with the foreign courses easier. Students have to take into consideration that the Learning Agreement, previously discussed with their Erasmus+ departmental coordinators, should be done in the awareness that when they return they have to attend the compulsory courses at Politecnico di Torino which wasn’t found in the host university.
