Admission procedure

Step 1 – Arrangements at your home university

Your Erasmus mobility grant will be paid by your home university, therefore, make sure to contact the responsible person(s) for Outgoing Erasmus Staff Exchanges at your home university. Inquire if your university has an Inter-Institutional Agreement (IIA) with RTU.

Step 2 – Arrangements at the chosen RTU Faculty or Department (using one or both options)

Contact and arrange the mobility placement (field, type, time etc.) directly with the RTU Faculty or Department of interest. This also involves the necessary documents and term arrangements.
Contact the RTU International Cooperation and Foreign Students Department to inquire about the possibilities for a Staff Exchange in any of the Faculties/Departments. In this case, please, send your:

CV;
Short motivation letter;
The fields that you are interested in for the mobility.

Step 3 – Online application
