Joint Arqus BIP (Blended Intensive Programme) is based on Erasmus BIP structure (minimum of 3 higher education institutions (HEIs) from 3 different EU countries) and financed through these funds. It is a short, intensive programme that uses innovative ways of learning and teaching, including the use of online cooperation, worth at least 3 ECTS. The programme may include challenge based learning where transnational and transdisciplinary teams work together to tackle challenges. By enabling new and more flexible mobility formats that combine physical mobility with a virtual part, blended intensive programmes aim at reaching all types of students from all backgrounds, study fields and cycles. The programme should involve at least 2 Arqus universities. The Arqus Alliance fosters the development of BIP providing partner universities the needed infrastructures: joint calls, coordination, management support.
