Partner Universities

For further information on destinations abroad, the courses and the programmes offered, you are advised to visit the partner Universities’ websites (paying particular attention to the courses offered, the field of study covered by the agreement and the faculty/department with which it was signed). When choosing the course units to attend abroad, you are invited to discuss the choice with the Mobility Unit Desk at SPGI Department. Do not forget that the above-mentioned courses must be entered into the Proposal of study activities which must be annexed to the application.

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 and the academic year of the mobility.
In the platform, the total number of months (“Number of free and allocated study places”) for each agreement must be divided by the number of available places indicated ("Total number").
It is necessary to note down all relevant information (e.g. Erasmus code, ISCED/area of study) in order to select the correct destination in Uniweb.

  Language knowledge

To participate in the mobility programme you are required ti have an adequate knowledge of the destination country’s language or of the language in which the courses are taught by the Partner Universities. The level of linguistic knowledge is established by the host University and the departure is subject to the presentation of the required certificates/documents within certain deadlines. It is therefore essential to know what is the level of language knowledge required by the Partners, which certificates/documents must be presented and it is the student's responsibility to obtain them within the deadlines set by the Partners.

Additional points will be given to students for the language knowledge, according to the SPGI selection criteria.

When the call for applications is published, the CLA provides dates to take the TAL to be used for Erasmus mobility at the application stage (more information on their website).
