Opportunities

ERUA offers exciting opportunities and chance to engage, innovate, and thrive in a vibrant, collaborative academic community:

For Students:

• Immerse yourself in intensive courses and international seminars that expand your academic vision.
• Represent ERUA as a student ambassador, cultivating leadership skills while bridging cultures.

For Faculty:

• Embark on a journey of professional growth with international seminars, teaching and research collaborations.
• Dive into cross-border teaching weeks, exchange ideas in joint initiatives, and showcase research at international seminars.
• ERUA Teaching Exchanges AY 2025-2026 offer MRU academic staff an opportunity to establish new academic cooperation with colleagues from ERUA partner universities—either by inviting a guest lecturer to join your class or by visiting another university within the Alliance yourself. Exchanges may take place virtually or physically, and their aim is to create an initial connection between lecturers, identify shared interests, and develop long-term collaboration. All teaching staff from ERUA universities may participate, and physical mobilities are funded through Erasmus+ Teaching Mobility. To begin, lecturers are invited to select a partner from the list of ERUA universities, contact the colleague directly, and agree on the content and timing of the visit. The joint collaboration proposal form should then be completed by both parties before submitting an Erasmus+ application. The next MRU call for Erasmus+ teaching mobilities for the spring semester will be announced in January 2026, so we recommend agreeing on all planned visit details with the host lecturer before this date.
