International experiences
Sapienza offers numerous opportunities for study, research and traineeships abroad, both within Europe and outside Europe, for short stays or longer periods, thesis research abroad and many other options.
Study periods in European countries: Erasmus+
Erasmus+ promotes transnational cooperation among higher education institutions. It funds mobility for study purposes in all disciplines and at all levels of study, including doctoral programmes, and supports academic recognition within the European Higher Education Area. The Erasmus+ programme allows students to attend courses and sit exams, with full recognition in their academic curriculum, or to conduct research for the preparation of their Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD dissertation.

Traineeships in European countries: Erasmus+ traineeship
Erasmus+ traineeship mobility allows students to carry out training periods in companies, training centres and research institutions located in participating countries. The programme enables full-time traineeships abroad, recognised as an integral part of the student’s study plan. The traineeship may also be carried out after graduation, provided that the selection process takes place before the degree is awarded. The number of mobility months is added to those of Erasmus study periods up to the maximum limit established by the programme.

Study periods in non-EU countries: Overseas Programme
Thanks to funds provided by the Ministry of Universities and Research (MUR) and Sapienza’s own resources, the University offers each year the opportunity to spend a study period abroad, to take exams or conduct thesis research, at one of the over 200 non-EU institutions with which bilateral agreements are in place. The Overseas mobility programme provides a monthly contribution of 700 euros net for the first five months and 500 euros net from the sixth month onwards. The stay abroad must be continuous, for a minimum of 90 days and a maximum of two consecutive semesters. The contribution may only be received once per study cycle and cannot be combined with other Sapienza grants.

Study or research periods in non-EU countries: Erasmus+ KA171 International Credit Mobility (ICM)
The Erasmus+ ICM programme, funded by the European Commission, allows students and academic staff to spend a study or research period abroad for dissertation work, or to carry out teaching or training activities in non-EU countries. The programme provides a scholarship and travel reimbursement. All activities carried out abroad are fully recognised upon return by the relevant Sapienza academic staff, as established in the Learning Agreement. Student mobility may last between three and six months, with the possibility of an extension up to a maximum of twelve months, with the last six months in Zero-EU Grant mode. The ICM grant also covers research mobility at PhD level for the same duration. Travel expenses are calculated through the Distance Calculator based on the distance between the city of the home university and the destination institution.

Degree Programme activities
Within the Degree Programme Board, a designated academic supervisor supports students in organising their study period abroad. This academic also verifies the compatibility of the proposed study plan abroad with the student’s individual Study Plan.
Students may also benefit from the contacts and collaborations established by academic staff with colleagues from foreign universities, through various types of agreements, to facilitate their choice of host institution and the definition of the activities to be carried out abroad, in line with the Degree Programme objectives and the interests and competences of each candidate.
