The program is designed to address diverse forms of inbound mobility for exchange students. Our goal is to discuss both the needs of incoming students and the services we can provide to support them in the best possible way during their stay to ensure that they feel well-integrated into the academic and social environment.

A key focus of the program will be to examine the different types of mobility opportunities. This includes traditional formats such as student exchange programs, internships, and summer or winter schools, which are already well-established in many institutions. However, we also recognize the growing importance of emerging formats that provide additional flexibility and academic depth, such as research placements and blended intensive programs.

Research placements, for instance, offer students the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in their field of study, working alongside faculty and researchers. Blended Intensive Programs (BIPs), on the other hand, allow students to engage in cross-border collaboration without the time and financial commitment required for traditional mobility formats, while still benefiting from in-person interactions and cultural immersion. The aim is to explore how these programs can be implemented and to discuss potential challenges that may arise.

By bringing together these different forms of mobility, we will share good practices and explore new ways of supporting our students. This will allow us to not only meet the current demands of student mobility but also to proactively shape its future by incorporating more flexible, inclusive, and innovative approaches.

Join us in this exchange of ideas and practices, where together, we can develop mobility opportunities and services that are truly aligned with the needs of our students.
