Incoming Short-term Mobilities for Study

Short-term mobilities could be organized under the Erasmus+ program, where full-time enrolled students in Bachelor’s and Master’s programs are able to apply. 

Having a mobility abroad is a central part of Erasmus+ and has been shown to have a positive effect on later job prospects. It is also an opportunity to improve language skills, gain self-confidence and independence and immerse yourself in a new culture.

For this type of mobilities, the physical mobility period must have at least minimum 5 days and must be combined with a mandatory virtual component. No eligibility criteria are set for the duration of the virtual component, but by combining virtual and physical mobility.

Romanian-American University (RAU) welcomes students from its partner universities to participate in Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) — short-term international study opportunities combining online activities with a physical mobility period in Romania.

RAU BIPs bring together students from different countries and academic backgrounds for an intensive learning experience that combines academic content, practical activities, intercultural exchange and networking. Depending on the programme, participants may explore topics related to business, tourism and hospitality, technology, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, law and other interdisciplinary fields.

By joining an RAU BIP, students can:

  • gain international academic experience in Bucharest and beyond;
  • develop academic, professional and intercultural skills;
  • work in international and multidisciplinary teams;
  • meet students and professors from different countries;
  • earn ECTS credits for their participation;
  • benefit from Erasmus+ funding, subject to the conditions established by their home university and the specific programme.

RAU regularly offers a diverse range of Blended Intensive Programmes, including summer and winter schools and other short-term international programmes. Programme topics, dates, duration, ECTS credits, eligibility requirements and application deadlines vary from one BIP to another.
