PRINCIPLES OF ACADEMIC EXCHANGES
- Students applying for a simple academic exchange are selected on the basis of their results during their studies at EDC Paris Business School, as well as their language skills and general behavior.
- Students applying for a double degree are selected on the basis of an application (same criteria as above) and an interview with an academic representative from both institutions.
- The number of students per destination is deliberately kept to a minimum, to help them better integrate into the partner university.
- Students pay EDC Paris Business School tuition fees even when they are on exchange and do not have to pay supplemental tuition at the host institution (with the exception of fee-paying agreements).
- A team dedicated to outgoing exchanges is in charge of organizing and preparing applications, as well as monitoring students throughout their mobility. Constantly in touch with its counterparts at partner universities, it ensures that mobility programs run smoothly, and manages international mobility grants.
MOBILITY AND INCLUSION
EDC PARIS Business School has put in place a number of measures to enable students with fewer opportunities or with disabilities to benefit from mobility and international experience. This policy can be summarized as follows:
Possibility of virtual or hybrid mobility after discussion with the student and the person in charge of Student Life at EDC
Choice of suitable and well-equipped universities
Organization of the student's itinerary with the host university
Remote exams with integrated monitoring software; part-time study possible
Collaboration with a psychologist available on campus or by telephone
ERASMUS + MOBILITY GRANTS
EDC Paris Business School has signed the extended Erasmus+ Charter granted by the European Commission in 2020 and has drawn up a European strategy statement.
Its participation in the European mobility program enables students to benefit from a grant when they complete an exchange semester at a European university that is also a signatory of the Charter, or an internship in a European company.
Since 2021, EDC Paris Business School has joined the Team consortium, which enables apprentices to carry out a two-month mobility in a company in Europe and benefit from an Erasmus+ grant.
Erasmus + Grant
These are granted to all students on exchange at a European institution that has signed the Erasmus Charter. Amounts vary according to geographical area and are based on the local cost of living. The amounts per geographic zone have been set by the European Commission. Students doing an internship in a EU member state or third-party country associated with the program can also apply for a mobility grant. However, not all students are eligible, and priority is generally given to those on unpaid internships. RATES 2023-24
