The ERASMUS programme consists of many different activities; student and teacher exchanges, joint development of study programmes (Curriculum Development), international intensive programmes, thematic networks between departments and faculties across Europe, language courses (EILC), European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).
ERASMUS is targeted at higher education institutions and their students and staff in all 25 Member States of the European Union, the three countries of the European Economic Area (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway), the three candidate countries (Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey). NHH has participated in ERASMUS since 1992.
Inspired by a mobility tradition that dates back to the Middle Ages, ERASMUS and its different activities fit into the mobility policy promoted by the Bologna Process, which aims at the creation of a European Higher Education Area by 2010.
Currently 2,199 higher education institutions in 31 countries are participating in ERASMUS. Since the creation of ERASMUS in 1987, 1.2 million students have benefited of an ERASMUS study period abroad. The ERASMUS budget for the year 2004 is more than €187.5 million.
