The Degree Programme in Professional Education at the University of Milan has long had a focus on internationalisation.
Research at prestigious European Universities has allowed us to develop our academic programme and internship activities. It has also now paved the way for a bilateral agreement with the University of La Salle in Madrid. Thanks to the Erasmus+ Programme, students can attend classes, complete an internship, and take their exams, within a different clinical environment, with the option to write their thesis there as well.
The Erasmus programme was founded in 1987 to ensure that European students can carry on the same educational and clinical work at another European University, in order to bolster their skills in both the sciences and patient care within an entirely new cultural and educational system.
Students in the Professional Education degree programme can plan their Erasmus+ study-abroad period for Year III of the programme, for a six-month period on a scholarship.
Academic activities contemplated during the study-abroad period must be approved by scientific coordinators for the campus, and by the Head of the Degree Programme.
All contemplated educational activities (coordinated with the foreign university thanks to a learning agreement) are compatible with the study programme contemplated under the DP. Student may request assistance from the Erasmus Coordinator of health professions bachelor's degree programmes in choosing internship courses and activities in a way that overlaps with our programme, keeping students on track to earn the proper academic credit.
For student transfer credit for credits earned in European Countries, use the ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) conversion table. Thereafter, the votes will be converted into thirtieths pursuant to a table approved by all DP within the University of Milan's Medical School, and included into the student's academic transcript. Transfer credit totals 30 ECTS (CFU) for six months of Erasmus+ study.
