What are the requirements for participating in a teaching mobility stay outside Europe?

In order to be able to carry out an Erasmus+ teaching mobility at a non-European university as an employee of Freie Universität Berlin, several requirements must be met. First, following successful application, Freie Universität Berlin must have received an approval for university staff mobility for the country you are interested in. Further, an inter-institutional agreement must exist between Freie Universität Berlin and the partner university where you would like to conduct your stay. In contrast to Erasmus+ Europe, the inter-institutional agreements for Erasmus+ worldwide mobility with partner countries usually apply university-wide for all departments and administrative units.

Guest lecturers should strengthen the European dimension of the host university through their stay, complement its teaching offer, and impart their expertise to students who do not want to or cannot study abroad. Ideally, this should involve the development of joint study programs at the partner universities as well as the exchange of teaching content and methods.

A minimum of 8 teaching hours per week must be completed during the stay. The funding starts from the first day on which attendance at your host university is mandatory as specified in the agreement and confirmed with your host university.
