Selected programme actions supporting projects with the participation of higher education institutions:
Cooperation Partnerships in the field of higher education
The action supports projects implemented by international consortia of universities, other institutions, organizations, enterprises from Program Countries (i.e. countries of the European Union, Turkey, North Macedonia, Serbia, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway), as well as - if justified – from Partner Countries from other parts of the world. The main goal of the partnerships is the development, transfer and/or implementation of innovative practices as well as the implementation of joint initiatives promoting cooperation, peer learning and exchanges of experience at European level for the modernization of the educational offer of universities, its better adaptation to the needs of society and the economy and improvement of the quality of education.
Applications for co-financing are submitted to the National Agency of the Erasmus+ Programme in the country of the institution leading the consortium. Applications led by Polish universities are submitted to the Foundation for the Development of the Education System (FRSE).
Erasmus Mundus Action
This action aims at fostering excellence and world-wide internationalisation of higher education institutions via study programmes – at master course level – jointly delivered and jointly recognised by higher education institutions established in Europe, and open to institutions in other countries of the world. The action includes Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters (EMJM) and Erasmus Mundus Design Measures (EMDM).
The EMJM projects relate to the implementation of joint study programs. They aim to enhance the attractiveness and excellence of European higher education in the world and attract talented students from all over the world to Europe. EMJM contain a compulsory student mobility component and the best candidates are awarded EU-funded scholarships.
The EMDM projects support the design of new, innovative and highly integrated transnational study programmes at Master level, jointly delivered by an international consortium of HEIs from different countries worldwide and, where relevant, other partners with specific expertise and interest in the concerned study areas/professional domains.
Applications for co-financing are submitted to the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
European Universities
This action supports the emergence of bottom-up networks of higher education institutions, which will bring cross-border cooperation to the next level of ambition, through the development of joint long-term strategies for top-quality education, research and innovation, based on a common vision and shared values.
Applications for co-financing are submitted to the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
Alliances for Education and Enterprises
This action supports transnational, structured and result-driven projects, in which partners share common goals and work together to foster innovation, new skills, a sense of initiative and entrepreneurial mind-sets. They aim to foster innovation in higher education, vocational education and training, enterprises and the broader socioeconomic environment. This includes confronting societal and economic challenges such as climate change, changing demographics, digitalisation, artificial intelligence and rapid employment changes through social innovation and community resilience, as well as labour market innovation.
Applications for co-financing are submitted to the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
Alliances for Sectoral Cooperation on Skills (implementing the ‘Blueprint’)
This action supports projects aimed at creating new strategic approaches and establishing cooperation for concrete skills development solutions in given economic sectors, or in areas implementing a major action of the European Skills Agenda for sustainable competitiveness, social fairness and resilience.
The goal of the projects implemented under this action is to tackle skills gaps on the labour market that hamper growth, innovation and competitiveness in specific sectors or areas of the EU economy. Alliances will be implemented in the 14 industrial ecosystems identified in the New Industrial Strategy for Europe.
