You can find detailed information on the various programmes on the website of the International Relations Office by clicking on the respective mobility programme: Erasmus+, Joint Study, Aurora Exchange Programme, Erasmus+ International, , and Secondos.
We recommend contacting the responsible mobility officer before applying for a stay abroad (see contact below).

For further information on the mobility programmes, please contact International Relations Office (IRO)of the University of Innsbruck.
Application form
The application is made via LFU:online "My mobilities".
For mobilities in the Aurora network and the Erasmus+ programme, the application deadlines are usually the end of March and the end of August respectively. Please note that a few institutions and programmes have earlier deadlines. For Joint Study, many partner universities have only one deadline for all study places for the entire academic year.
Typically, the application consists of the following documents: CV, letter of motivation, proof of your previous academic success and proof of your foreign language skills.
Please inform yourself in good time about the possibilities of (additional) funding for your planned stay abroad, e.g. at Austrian Exchange Service or via Scholarships and grants.
Partner universities
Currently, students of the Master's programme Media, Society and Communication can apply for study places at partner universities with which University-wide agreements exist.
After the application
If your application for mobility in the Aurora network or the Erasmus+ programme is successful, you will receive further information by mid-April (for the winter semester or the entire year) or by mid-September (for the summer semester). You may be invited to an interview by the mobility officer. This would take place before 10 April or 10 September, as the nomination must be entered into the system by these dates.
Before the start of your stay abroad, you will need to complete a few formalities, which the International Relations Office (IRO) will inform you about. It is particularly important to prepare the course recognition in the Online Learning Agreement (OLA), for which an appointment with the mobility officer will be necessary.
Please note that only OLAs that have been approved by the mobility officer (see contact below) will be signed by the Study representatives be signed.
