Erasmus for CEU Students
ERASMUS STUDY GRANTS FOR 2012/2013
CEU students may spend 1 or 2 semesters at a partner university under the Erasmus scheme.

Student exchange within the ERASMUS scheme is possible between partner institutions with a bilateral agreement. For more information on study opportunities based on bilateral agreements, see a full list of CEU's bilateral agreements.
