The new Arqus call for Twinning short mobilities is open!

Arqus launches Twinning 2.0, an initiative that aims to strengthen the subject-related collaboration of staff and students and create possibilities to carry out joint learning and teaching activities through piloting short-term mobility schemes.

Twinnings consist of an international mobility programme for two groups from two Arqus universities, made by 1 lecturer and 3 to 5 students, reciprocally visiting each other’s partner institution to carry out a common programme and share mutual learning experiences.

The length of the visits is 3-5 days (and 2 additional days for travel) and activities may vary in mode and type. They may include group trips, participation in international contests, joint workshops, summer schools, group projects, etc. Twinning activities might be implemented through regular (physical) mobility or even blended learning, foreseeing the interaction between the groups beyond the duration of their stays abroad.

The deadline for applicants is 31^st May 2024. The award winning project will be announced by 28^th June 2024. The period eligible for Twinning 2.0 visits spans from 1^st September 2024 to 30^th September 2025.
