Erasmus Internship
The Erasmus+ program also offers students the opportunity to gain valuable international work experience through internships in the fields of education, research, industry, or culture (Student Mobility for Placements, SMP). An Erasmus internship allows you to enhance your professional and intercultural skills, build connections across Europe, and significantly boost your career prospects.
