Application
The application process begins with contacting the receiving institute and presenting the planned guest lectureship.
Please submit the application at least 6 weeks before the start of the programme. If a visa is required (incoming and outgoing), it would be advisable to apply at least 3 months before the mobility (the sooner the better), as the waiting times for the embassy appointment and the issuing of the visa can unfortunately take quite a long time.
Administrative procedure
- The host faculty/institute contacts the International Office and provides detailed information about the planned guest lectureship.
- The International Office contacts the person to be funded and sends them the Mobility Agreement.
- The person to be sponsored fills out the Mobility Agreement and has it signed.
- The person to be sponsored sends the Mobility Agreement back to the International Office (a scan is sufficient).
- The International Office checks the complete Mobility Agreement and issues a funding commitment if the check is positive.
Please have your host at UPB fill out, sign and stamp the Confirmation of Participation. The Confirmation serves as proof of the lessons you have given and the actual duration of your stay on site. The signature date must be the same date as the last day of your stay for teaching purposes. For example, if the teaching takes place from 1 April to 5 April, the date of the signature confirming the stay must be 5 April.
- Please submit your travel expense report to the travel expense centre and enclose a copy of your Confirmation of Participation. As the amount of Erasmus+ funding is calculated on the basis of unit costs, a simplified travel expense report without receipts and vouchers is sufficient. Only the first two columns on page 2 of the travel expense report need to be completed.
- Please send a scan of the Confirmation of Participation to the International Office.
- At the end of your stay, you will receive an automatically generated e-mail with access to the Erasmus+ participant report. This is mandatory for Erasmus+ funding. Please complete it within 30 days. If, in the case of a blended mobility, the virtual part is after the physical part, you will only receive the invitation to the Erasmus+ participant report after the end of the virtual phase.
Fundamentals
Reimbursement of approved costs can only be made as part of a settlement with the travel expenses centre. Please submit your travel expense reimbursement promptly after your return. In general, applications for reimbursement of travel expenses must be submitted in writing within a cut-off period of six months. Travel expenses are settled on the basis of Erasmus+ unit costs (reimbursement of travel expenses and daily rates). If the financial support exceeds your actual costs incurred, you must pay tax on the surplus.
No insurance cover is associated with a grant from Erasmus+ funds. Neither the EU Commission nor the DAAD are liable for damages resulting from illness, death, accident, personal injury, loss or damage to property in connection with the Erasmus+ stay. The University would therefore like to point out to the scholarship holders that they themselves must ensure that they have adequate insurance cover for the duration of their stay abroad.
