Staff mobility

USMB staff (all, permanent and contractual) have the opportunity to carry out a academics, teaching or prospecting mobility in an institution in another European country that is a member of Erasmus+.

These stays enable us to develop partnerships, improve knowledge sharing within Europe, discover the working methods of European colleagues, and exchange experiences and best practices.

  • Staff training academics (Erasmus+ STT: Staff Training mobility)
    This involves taking part in a
    academics, internship or observation activity in a company or higher education institution (including structured courses, BIP - hybrid intensive programs, academics language, participation in a staff week, summer school, etc.).
  • Teaching mobility (Erasmus+ STA: Staff mobility for Teaching Assignment)
    This involves teaching courses integrated into the curriculum of the partner institution. This mobility can take place in any academic branch or discipline.

Please note : conferences are not eligible for staff mobility.

ECO-RESPONSIBLE MOBILITY, also known as "green mobility":

The European Commission encourages and promotes the use of environmentally-friendly means of transport.

Si vous parcourez plus de 60% du trajet aller-retour en train, autocar ou en covoiturage pour vous rendre depuis votre domicile en France jusqu’à votre lieu de séjour à l’étranger, vous pouvez obtenir les financements complémentaires suivants (sur présentation de justificatifs) :

  • + entre 28 et 205 € de complément aux frais de voyage selon la distance parcourue,
  • for any journey of more than 500 km between the USMB and the place of your stay abroad: + 1 day added to the duration of your stay to compensate for the time you spent in transport.

For academics and teaching placements approved by the International Relations Steering Committee:

  • Payment of a grant directly to the staff concerned, who will then take charge of their mobility (booking and purchase of travel tickets, hotels, etc.).
  • An advance of 100% of the cost of the trip and 75% of the cost of the stay will be paid before the mobility.
  • The balance of 25% of the cost of the stay will be paid at the end of the mobility program, on receipt of supporting documents.

Based on certificate of attendance :

  • for shorter effective mobilities: downward adjustment of the number of financed days of stay
  • for actual mobilities longer than those validated by CORI: no upward financial adjustment

 

In line with the strategic choices defined by the International Relations Steering Committee, it has been decided to encourage travel to :

  • cross-border regions and the Alpine arc (northern Italy, southern Germany, Austria and Slovenia)
  • Mobilities within the "Unita Universitas Montium" alliance: the University of Turin (Italy), the University of Zaragoza (Spain), the University of Beira Interior (Portugal) and the University of West Timisoara (Romania), and new associate university partners: the University of Brescia (Italy), the Public University of Navarre (Spain), the Polytechnic of Guarda (Portugal) and the University of Brasov (Romania).
  • destinations that generate student mobility, in particular English-speaking and Scandinavian countries.
