The Department of Informatics and Telecommunications encourages European academic cooperation and participates in LLP Erasmus+ programme.
Under the Erasmus+ programme both undergraduate and postgraduate students can move (a) for studying at universities that have a bilateral agreement with the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications or (b) for internship at a cooperating institution or company. In the first case, students can enrol to courses or develop part of their final thesis in any of the EU countries, while in the second case students can deal with a topic that is associated with the object of their studies. Note finally, that the Department also cooperates with International higher education institutions in Asia, North Africa, and other areas.
Today the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications has bilateral agreements with 30 European universities under the Erasmus+ programme.
Over the recent years, more than 36 students of the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications accomplished part of their undergraduate studies in EU universities under the Erasmus and Erasmus + programmes. In addition, since the beginning of the internship programme, 8 of them had the opportunity to work for a short period of time at European institutions and companies. The respective incoming students were 11.
The Erasmus Office along with the responsible moderators of the Erasmus programme at the Department are the ones advising the participants about the mobility programmes and helping them cope with both the substantive issues relating to academic topics and necessary formalities.
Under the Erasmus+ programme, there is also the opportunity for the research staff of the Department to move for short periods of time in European universities to teach and also, deepen in practice the relations of the University of the Peloponnese with universities around Europe.
