Short-term internships of doctoral students can be funded as short-term mobility. An additional virtual phase at the home location is optional. The internship physically carried out abroad lasts 5 to 30 days. An Erasmus+ mobility grant may be awarded for the period spent abroad.

The Erasmus+ grant will continue to be used mainly for long-term mobilities of two to twelve months. In individual cases, if one goes abroad with one or more children, has a degree of disability of at least 20% or if one has already done a long-term internship abroad, a short-term internship can be funded.
