Erasmus Programme 2009 - 2010

Erasmus is the EU's flagship education and training programme. Its main objectives are:
- To enable students to benefit educationally, linguistically and culturally from the experience of learning in other European countries;- To promote co-operation between institutions and to enrich the educational environment of host institutions;- To contribute to the development of a pool of well-qualified, open-minded and internationally experienced young people as future professionals..
The University of Padova Medical School considers the Erasmus Programme an important way of developing an international culture and of enhancing international relations. It promotes the creation of new links and collaborations with European partners, and provides administrative support to increase the participation of students.
The Erasmus programme allows students to spend a period of study at our partner universities to attend courses and make exams, practical activity and thesis work. Mobility is also opened, for selected Universities, to doctoral students. The period of exchange has been agreed with each
Institution and varies from 3 to 12 months.
Currently the Faculty of Medicine offers Erasmus exchanges for the following Degree Courses:- Medicine and Surgery- Dentistry- Nursing- Physiotherapy- Speech Therapy- Dietetics- Motor Sciences- Audiometric Techniques- Audioprothesis Techniques- Health Biotechnologies- Medical Biotechnologies- Preventive and Adapted Motor Activity Science and Techniques- Nursing and Midwifery Sciences
