Currently, applications may be submitted for mobility periods taking place until 30 September 2026, to any CHARM-EU partner university.
Applications may be submitted on an ongoing basis until 30 June 2026. Decisions will be made within two months of submission.
Student Mobility Opportunities with Intercultural Preparation
Target group: ELTE bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral students from any field of study

Mobility supports not only academic but also intercultural development. The CHARM-EU Alliance has developed an Intercultural Communication Short Course, consisting of modular video content on intercultural communication topics, accessible flexibly and at one’s own pace. These resources are designed for students, staff, and academics alike, as well as anyone interested in exploring and enhancing their intercultural competence.
