Signing of a Bilateral ERASMUS Agreement
If an ERASMUS agreement with a certain university does not already exist (please check corresponding overview in the sidebox), after consultation with their superior, staff members contact the Head of the International Relations Office of the University of Lucerne in order to sign a bilateral ERASMUS agreement with the corresponding partner university. For further information on the signing of agreements please click here.

As soon as the bilateral ERASMUS agreement has been signed, or if such an agreement already exists, the staff member has to contact the respective department of the partner university in order to settle the conditions and organisation of the training exchange (time period of exchange, duration and schedule, possible working space etc.).
The Mobility Office of the University of Lucerne does not place staff at ERASMUS partner universities. Staff members, who want to do an exchange, are responsible for the organisation of the exchange.
Application for the Exchange
Once the staff member and the host university do agree on the organisation of the exchange, the staff member has to file his/her formal application on behalf of the Mobility Office of the University of Lucerne. Staff of the University of Lucerne can apply for a grant for (partially) covering travel and accommodation expenses. Teaching staff of the University of Lucerne can apply for a grant for (partially) covering travel and accommodation expenses. The paid allowances are based on the regulations of the ERASMUS-programme. A detailed list of the allowance rates per host country is available at the Mobility Office.
Please consult the corresponding regulations and forms as downloads in the box on the right.
