Erasmus+ and guest students

Staff mobility

We warmly welcome academic and administrative staff from our current and prospective partner institutions to participate in the Erasmus+ Staff Mobility programme at our faculty and university. This initiative offers excellent opportunities for professional development through teaching or training visits, fostering international cooperation, and exchanging innovative methods and good practices.

Applications from visitors from institutions outside the EU are currently not encouraged. While ELTE GTK is constantly seeking to strengthen cooperation with universities around the world, new Erasmus+ partnerships are primarily established with EU institutions due to the fact that interest in countries outside the EU is not significant either at the level of students and staff/teaching faculty. Contact for non-EU institutions is available on ELTE’s university webpage(e.g. the International Strategy Office of the Rector’s Cabinet or the Department of Erasmus+ and International Programmes).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR INCOMING ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF 

Your home institution must have a valid Erasmus+ Inter-institutional Agreement with our University covering staff mobility. If your university does not have such an agreement with ELTE GTK, please contact ELTE’s central international offices (e.g. the International Strategy Office of the Rector’s Cabinet or the Department of Erasmus+ and International Programmes).

Mobility arrangements are organised directly between the incoming staff member and ELTE GTK’s International Office. The Office can approve the mobility and sign all the required Erasmus+ documents (such as the Mobility Agreement and Certificate of Attendance). All in all, the International Office coordinates administrative support, issues official invitation letters (upon your request), and assists you with the necessary documentation.
