Erasmus traineeship

The Erasmus programme provides grants for traineeships at companies, organisations and universities in Europe. You can also use an Erasmus traineeship grant to finance data collection abroad for a thesis/degree project (at Bachelor’s or Master’s level). Here you can read more about how to apply for a grant and the rules that apply.

To apply for an Erasmus traineeship, you must meet the following conditions

• You must be a student intending to take a degree at Bachelor’s (first-cycle), Master’s (second-cycle) or doctoral (third-cycle) level at Uppsala University.
• You must have completed at least 60 credits of university studies.
• You must be enrolled at Uppsala University at the time you apply. If you are travelling to take up a traineeship after your degree, you must submit the application before the final course in your degree programme has been registered as completed.
• You must have arranged a traineeship that has been approved by your department (it must be relevant for your education and future career) in one of the 33 countries in the Erasmus+ Programme.
• The organisation at which you carry out the traineeship must be approved. Read more about this in stage 2 of the application guide.
• The traineeship must be full-time and last for a minimum of 60 days and a maximum of 360 days.
• If the traineeship takes place in your home country it must generate credits.

We cannot approve applications for traineeship periods that have already begun, so remember to plan and submit your application on time. An application takes around one month to handle. If you are having problems with this you can e-mail us at erasmus@uu.se to see if it is possible to solve.

The application round September 1-15 is now closed.
Next ordinary application round November 1-15.
