University of Aveiro - Erasmus Mobility Grants for Students

Erasmus+ Mobility Grant (University of Aveiro)

Whilst studying at a partner university in another European country, you will receive a monthly grant. For a study period, you will receive 350 to 450 EUR per month. For an internship abroad, you will receive 500 to 600 EUR per month. A study period lasts up to 5 months for one semester or up to 9 months for two semesters. An internship lasts from 2 to 12 months, and you will receive remuneration for up to 4 months. The amount of the study grant depends on where you are going: 450 EUR for Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Norway or Sweden; 400 EUR for Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal or Spain; and 350 EUR for most countries in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. The grant helps with living and travel costs, but does not cover them in full. It is provided by the University of Aveiro (UA) as part of the EU’s Erasmus+ programme. Throughout your studies (Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD), you can spend up to 12 months abroad with Erasmus+. If, for example, you have fewer opportunities due to a disability or financial hardship, you can apply for an additional grant from the International Affairs Department.
