Staff Mobility with Erasmus+
Discover new perspectives and expand your skills: The Erasmus Staff Mobility offers university staff the opportunity to participate in Staff Weeks and Job Shadowings in other European countries or to teach at partner universities. Build international connections, gain valuable insights into other higher education systems, and bring fresh ideas to your daily work.
New Opportunities Abroad
The programme is open to all University of Siegen employees, provided that:
- the employment has lasted for at least half a year on a part-time or full-time basis,
- the employment continues for at least 4 months after the planned stay,
- the selection of the stay was agreed in advance within the chair.
Please note that language courses abroad are not funded through the Erasmus+ program. If you are interested in a language course, please take a look at the language courses for staff offered by the Language Center.
Two Possible Program Tracks
Erasmus+ Training
As part of the Erasmus+ staff mobility program for training, staff members can join a Staff Week or do a Job Shadowing in other European countries. This gives you the opportunity to further develop your professional and personal skills, establish international contacts, and gain insights into other higher education systems and work practices. The new experiences and ideas gained can then be incorporated into your daily work at the University of Siegen.
Erasmus+ Teaching
Erasmus+ funding for teaching is intended for university staff members who wish to teach courses at European partner universities. It allows you to gain international teaching experience, contribute your expertise to a new academic environment, and strengthen your professional network across national borders. At the same time, the exchange offers the chance to gain new perspectives and inspiration for your own teaching and to promote intercultural exchange.
