Types of trips
As part of the Erasmus + program, employees of foreign universities can come to Gdańsk Tech:
1. to participate in training
2. in order to conduct didactic classes
3. to participate in training and teaching (mixed mobility)
Additionally, it is possible for employees to come from entities that do not have an Erasmus Charter (e.g. from enterprises). Such arrivals are only possible from program countries and for teaching purposes only.
Number of teaching hours
The minimum number of hours of classes to be carried out during one week or shorter stay is 8 hours. If the stay exceeds one week, the number of teaching hours to be completed is 8+ (8/5 multiplied by the number of additional days). In the case of mixed mobility (didactics + training), min. the number of teaching hours is 4.
Countries from which guests can be hosted
Arrivals for training and for the purpose of teaching classes are carried out with:
1. program countries (EU, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Serbia, North Macedonia, Turkey);
2. partner countries (other countries with whom Gdańsk Tech has signed agreements).
The main differences between arrivals from Program and Partner Countries is:
1. length of stay:
- program countries: min. 2 days - max. 60 days
- partner countries: min. 5 days - max 60 days
2. co-financing:
- guests from program countries receive a scholarship from their home university, max. 5 days
- guests from partner countries receive funding from Gdańsk Tech for 5 days + max. 2 days of travel
3. The amount of the grant:
- program countries: the amount of the grant is in line with the rate in force in each country
- partner countries: one rate for all countries (EUR 140 per day)
Co-financing for arrival (only for arrivals from partner countries)
The guest co-financing consists of individual support + travel lump sum.
It is forbidden to co-finance the trip with European funds.
Individual support is EUR 140 per day (also per day of travel).
