Bilateral agreements/Ulisse Programme: incoming students
Internationalization has always been a strategic priority for the University of Padova. Thanks to more than 300 bilateral agreements, the University has established long-standing relationships with higher education institutions around the world. These collaborations, extended not only to Europe but also to Africa, North and South America, Asia and the Middle East, aim to encourage international exchanges of teachers, technical-administrative staff and students of all levels of study.
These bilateral agreements decline academic cooperation in different forms, which also include research activities, joint publications and exchange of information and good practices, with the aim of strengthening academic cooperation.
For information on the Erasmus+ programme, please visit the dedicated page.
International candidates who wish to carry out a period of study in Padova or research as doctoral students in international exchange with the above-mentioned programs must apply at their home institution.
The official nominations of the candidates must be sent to Unipd by the institutions of origin through the online form available on Mobility Online.
Partner institutions receive via email the credentials to access the form to send the Nomination of their students.
