Higher education student and staff mobility project
Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project is carried out according plan. The AHK has applied Erasmus mobility funding for their six faculties to facilitate the activities of the joint European master study programmes for EUJAM (music) and EMiLA (landscape architecture). Traineeships through Erasmus were planned for our department cultural heritage and theater; a ‘newcomer’ is our department film, especially the department of special effects in film (IMVFX) has expanded in their activities. We saw a temporarily drop in numbers for Erasmus teaching assignments for 2014-2016 from one faculty (music). But this trend has changed since then (see our future report for the period 2015-2017). Due to the requirement to take audition or to put together a portfolio, students are required to apply around certain time of the year for study exchange (music and theater is around March 1, for architecture this is later, around May). Internships applications can be accepted throughout the year if they are announced earlier in the study year by the co-ordinators internationalisation and communicated to the central office level/ Erasmus co-ordinator for the AHK. Students can also apply via the two application rounds for AHK's own internationalisation funds rounds (mid May and mid November); those who fall under the criteria of Erasmus were invited to take part in the Erasmus traineeship grant (as the grant amount is higher than AHK's own grant programme). One note: we noticed that the AHK has applied a more than strict definition what "staff mobility" entails within our organisation, hence the limited number of mobility in this area. We have taken this broader from 2015-2017 which shows a larger number of staff members and teachers doing staff mobility under the Erasmus programme. In the course of 2015, the AHK has actively make more promotion among head of study programmes to promote Erasmus teaching exchange, with better results than 2014-2106.
