Destination universities are available in the new interactive platform: www.unipd.it/mobility-agreements

You must select your course of study from the Study field drop-down menu. In the platform, the total number of months indicated under Number for each agreement must be divided by the number of available places indicated under Total number.
It is necessary to note down all relevant information (e.g. Erasmus code, Academic Coordinator, ISCED/area of study) in order to select the correct destination in Uniweb.

  Procedure for successful students

Selected students who have accepted their spot are required to complete the Ready-to-Mobile course and follow the instructions provided on the relevant page.

  Learning Agreement

The Learning Agreement is an essential document for the activities carried out abroad to be recognized (both in the case of course units and thesis research activity) and it must be agreed on by the three parties involved: the student, the University of Padua and the partner University.

For instructions and information on the deadlines for the submission of the Learning Agreement, please visit the web page Submitting and changing your Learning Agreement.

The International Mobility Coordinator for the degree program is responsible for approving the Learning Agreement.

  Activities to carry out abroad for each degree programme

Course units, internships and thesis research are the activities you can carry out abroad for each degree program. NOTE: it is strictly forbidden to carry out internship activities only. If you choose one or more internship activities, you also have to associate at least one documented educational activity that you can choose among language course units, seminars, free-choice activities and others.

Thesis
You have to attach to the application form a letter signed by your thesis supervisor in Padua (or by the Flow manager), declaring its willingness to have the student that is doing research work abroad in at the chosen university as well as the thesis topic / area.

Internship
Internship activities are subject to availability at the foreign university and they must be carried out alongside a period of study. The entire training period has to be supervised by the institute abroad where the student will also carry out a period of study

  Recognition of the examinations sat abroad

Inform yourself with the partner university regarding the issuance and sending timelines of the Transcript of Records. If the document does not present a verifiable code or digital signature, you will need to request the partner to send it directly to erasmus@unipd.it from their institutional email address. Please make sure that the information in the Transcript of records is complete and correct. Once the Mobility office has received all the end-of-mobility documents, ToR included, and carried out the necessary checks, it will send a secured copy of the Transcript of Records to the Mobility desk which will initiate the recognition process. For additional information: www.unipd.it/en/after-mobility-erasmus-out.

Foreign grades can be converted into Italian grades (expressed in a thirty-point scale) in accordance with European rules outlined in the page conversion of the grades and ECTS tables.
