MONTANUNIVERSITAET LEOBEN | ERASMUS+ International Staff Week | May 9 – 13, 2016

Opportunities and Challenges within the ERASMUS+ Program

Montanuniversitaet Leoben, Austria (A LEOBEN01)

MIRO - the Montanuniversitaet Office of International Relations would like to invite your university staff members to our International Staff Week at Montanuniversitaet Leoben, Austria (A LEOBEN 01). The event is the perfect opportunity to get to know our university and share information about yours, network with colleagues from all over, share your own experiences and listen to others, discuss issues, increase the visibility of your own institution and increase international cooperation. A detailed program including all sessions will be available within the next few weeks. As we are a new team here at MIRO in Leoben, we particularly would like to encourage our partners to come to this staff week.

Target Group: Higher Education staff members working on all matters related to the internationalization at their home institution (mobility, university cooperation, student advising, student union, internationalization); a focus on initiatives within the ERASMUS+ program is beneficial, but is not required; in addition to our regular program, we will set up meetings with coordinators to enable a large variety of staff to participate in our staff week

Program: The program will include sessions with regard to the administration of all aspects of the ERASMUS+ program (e.g. Student and Staff Mobility, International Credit Mobility, ERASMUS Mundus Joint Programs), campus and department tours, tour of the construction site of our new dorm, networking events, excursions, and a social program (dinners, city tour). A detailed program is to be published in February 2016.

Language: English

Funding: Participants are expected to fund their own travel, accommodation and other personal expenses (apply for ERASMUS+ Staff Mobility Grant at home institution)

Accommodation: A list of hotels and private accommodation in Leoben can be found here:
