ERASMUS OPENING DOORS TO EDUCATION AND CULTURE ACROSS EUROPE
Erasmus and IdHEO Nantes
IdHEO is looking to extend its osteopathic skills across Europe by opening up exchange opportunities for students and staff in the Erasmus program. Through student, staff mobility, partnerships and projects IdHEO’s aim is to train quality osteopaths in an evolving profession with a cultural openness and thus better equipped for living and working in Europe.
An Erasmus department has recently been created and we will keep you up to date with new developments. An application has been made for the Erasmus University Charter 2007-2013 and you can read our Erasmus Policy statement on the following links:
- "IdHEO's EPS objectives" (en-fr)
ERASMUS UPDATE 4 December 2007
We put in a new demand for the Erasmus Charter at the end of November 2007.
As IdHEO is now officially recognised by the French Health Ministry (August 9th 2007) we should be included in the list of eligible institutions.
The results will be given in April.
What is Erasmus?
The purpose of Erasmus is to improve the quality of higher education and strengthen its European dimension. It does this by encouraging transnational cooperation between universities, fostering the European mobility of students and teachers, and contributing to improved transparency and academic recognition of qualifications and studies throughout the European Union.
Erasmus supports the following activities:
Student mobility (SM)
Erasmus gives students (up to and including doctorate, except for students enrolled in their first year of Higher Education) the opportunity to study for a period of 3-12 months at a university or higher education establishment in another participating country in the framework of agreed arrangements between universities. The time spent in the other country is fully recognised in the originating university, thanks to ECTS. Students also receive an Erasmus Student Charter which outlines their rights as visiting students and the obligations which they must fulfil at their host institution.
Teaching staff mobility (TS)
Erasmus provides support for teachers giving, generally short courses, as part of the official curriculum of a partner university in another European country. The grants are intended as a contribution to the additional costs arising from teaching in another country.
Organisation of mobility (OM)
Erasmus provides support to higher education institutions for the creation of optimal conditions: a) for students, to undertake recognised periods of study at partner institutions in other participating countries; b) for teachers, to organise fully integrated teaching assignments of short duration; c) for implementation of ECTS and Diploma Supplement (DS).
