Erasmus Traineeship – Outgoing mobility
The Erasmus+ programme provides you with the opportunity to carry out a traineeship abroad at a company, a research or training centre, or another organization.
Traineeship activities will be agreed with the department's Erasmus Coordinators and set out in your Learning Agreement for Traineeship.
Undergraduate and postgraduate traineeships have a minimum duration of 2 months and a maximum duration of 12 months; PhD student traineeships may last 5 to 30 days or 2 to 12 months.
Traineeships can be carried out in blended mode, i.e. combining physical and virtual mobility. Virtual mobilities are not given a scholarship.
Selected students will be awarded a scholarship, whose amount is set annually by the Italian Erasmus Agency (500 €, 450 € o 400 € depending on the cost of living).
Students can contact the office via InformaStudenti only.
Appointments (to book via Informastudenti > Appointments > Sportello "Mobilità Internazionale" > Desk type "online" > Topic "Erasmus Traineeship"). Tue 10-12; Thurs 14-16, either on MS Teams or phone. Students are invited to make themselves available on both channels on the chosen day.

- All undergraduate, postgraduate or PhD students (you can apply as early as the first year). The traineeship must be completed before discussing the degree thesis.
- Those who have completed their degree or PhD programme, provided that they are enrolled at the time of application and that the traineeship is carried out within 12 months from graduation.
Calls for applications are usually published twice a year and offer different traineeship opportunities. Applicants to the Spring selection may choose a destination campus autonomously, whereas the Fall selection offers internship destinations based on existing agreements between the University of Milan and host institutions.
Applications must be submitted online through the Elixform platform, as noted in the call, along with the required attachments.
The Erasmus 2021/2027 programme includes the UK among the possible traineeship destinations.
If you are interested in this destination, we invite you to refer beforehand to the guidelines on the right to learn how the Visa application process is structured. Please consider the time it may take and any possible extra costs before applying.
