Erasmus

The School of Economics operates a number of student exchanges under the ERASMUS scheme. This leads to the BSc International on completion of studies in UCD. The scheme enables students who have successfully completed their second year of studies to spend a full academic year or a semester at selected universities in Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands. Italy and Spain. No fees are charged to students and limited funding is available. Students in receipt of grants will continue to avail of them when studying abroad.

ERASMUS is an opportunity to experience an academic environment in another country, gain international experience and make new friends. In many cases, the exchange also provides an opportunity to learn or perfect a foreign language. Also, it is usually possible to take courses in your other subject, in new subject areas and in the language of the host country.

Applications will be made via SISWEB and reviewed by UCD Global with their recommendations subsequently approved by the School.  Subject to confirmation, it is expected that applications will open on SISWEB from around mid November with an application deadline around mid to late January.
