The ERASMUS programme, a gateway to the rest of the world

In addition to studies, this mobility encourages open-mindedness, autonomy and the development of much sought-after intercultural skills.
A variety of destinations in Europe and South America
At the University of Guyana's ERASMUS information meeting, the programme managers will present all the destinations available. More than thirteen European countries are part of the network, as well as several South American countries such as Brazil, Colombia and Guyana. Each destination offers a different university environment and a unique cultural immersion, suitable for a wide range of study projects.
Understanding application procedures and selection criteria
