MOBILITY

Yes, it is. The participation in the programme is free of charge.

First of all, create an account on the programme portal, fill in and print out the application form, collect the relevant signatures and contact your coordinator or faculty coordinator. Detailed information and instructions can be found on the programme website.

You can take part in the programme if you have completed the second semester of a uniform master's studies, the second semester of BA studies, the first semester of MA studies or if you are a doctoral student after the first year of studies or after the first year of training at a doctoral school.

 

Yes, you can. If you are a student in the final year of BA, MA studies or uniform master’s studies, you are obliged to make arrangements before you leave for your BA/MA seminar and other classes preparing for the diploma exam at your mother university.

Recruitment under the "MOST" exchange programme is carried out twice a year:

• from April to May (recruitment for the winter semester and the entire academic year)
• from October to November (summer semester recruitment)

More information on recruitment can be found by using this link. This website will allow you to follow the up-to-date information and set up an account.

If you would like to take part in the "MOST" exchange programme, set up an account on the IRK-MOST website and chose the study programme(s) you are interested in and the university where you would like to complete the programme.

 

Once you have printed out the application form, number your chosen study programmes (in order from the most preferable one – numbered 1 – to the least preferable one).

Deliver the application immediately to your faculty dean's office. A member of staff in the Dean's Office will present your application to the Dean (or other authorised person) for approval.

Remember not to wait until the last minute to submit your application.

Your application should reach the dean's office early enough so that, after forwarding it to the faculty and then the university coordinator, it receives final approvals and is uploaded to the system before the end of recruitment.

You may attach a letter of motivation to your application, stating why you have chosen this particular study programme (e.g. link to your previous research or academic activity) or why you would like to be referred to the university of your choice (uniqueness of the subject offered by a particular university, academic achievements of the lecturer, desire to attend classes taught by a lecturer with exceptional academic achievements, resources of the university library, etc.).

Eligibility decisions are made by the University Education Committee. Decisions will be available on your individual IRK MOST account.

If you have not qualified for the exchange, you remain on the reserve list. That way, if a space becomes available, you can use it.

Once you have received a positive decision, but before you go on your exchange, you should agree on the content of the Learning Agreement. It will be the basis for the implementation of the exchange.

When it is necessary to change the content of the agreement, use the Annex to the Agreement form.

Settlement of your fulfilment of the Learning Agreement will be made by the dean of your mother university on the basis of the Periodic Achievement Sheet.

For details, use this link.

The decision will be sent to your individual IRK-MOST account.

 

Yes, you can! This also works the other way round: once you have gone abroad under the Erasmus programme, you can also apply for a place on the "MOST" programme. 
 
Would you like to know more? Visit the programme’s website.

No, you will not lose the right to receive the scholarship awarded and paid by your mother university.

 

If for some reason your trip cannot take place (random incident), you should report this information to your faculty "MOST" coordinator.

 

If you need to resign from the participation in the programme, detailed instructions on what to do can be found using this link.

Among many options of the Erasmus+ programme, you can take part in BIPs – Blended Intensive Programmes. These are short intensive mobilities abroad that involve a combination of physical and virtual component. Their goals include facilitating teamwork and exchange of experience on the basis of collaborative e-learning. During blended intensive programmes, students undertake short-term physical mobility (5 to 30 days) abroad, combined with a necessary virtual component (whose duration is agreed with the university that runs the BIP, or your host university). The virtual (online) component is grant-free – but for the physical component, you can get financial support after you sign a grant agreement for a specific number of days spent abroad, sometimes with added allowance for your travel.

Once a year, there is an application round announced for the Erasmus+ Student Mobility for Studies exchange scheme. This way, you can go to study abroad for the winter semester, summer semester and sometimes for the whole academic year. Before going abroad, you should pay special attention to the enrolment rules, provide all required documents and sign your grant agreement.

With this particular Erasmus+ scheme, you can visit partner institutions in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Latvia, Lithuania, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Turkey – please check availability for your particular study programme.

If you wish to upgrade your professional skills abroad, you can enrol for Erasmus+ traineeship mobility throughout your doctoral studies (even in your last year of curriculum). This is the so-called long-term mobility which means it involves at least 60 days spent at a host institution outside Poland.

Cotutelle is an international PhD that makes it possible to prepare your dissertation at two universities, under the supervision of two supervisors. A double degree increases the prestige of your dissertation, and the fact that you have attended two universities, one Polish and one abroad, gives you extra chance to develop further research opportunities and contacts in the global research community.  

Today, the cotutelle doctorate (originally a French idea) is popular in several European countries: Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and of course in France.   

In order to follow a cotutelle training programme, it is necessary to conclude a contract between the University of Lodz and the foreign-based university. The contract is prepared for each doctoral student individually - jointly by the University of Lodz and the other university abroad in consultation with the doctoral student on the basis of the templates provided below.

If you are a doctoral student or candidate for the Doctoral School and wish to study in the cotutelle mode, please e-mail the contact person named below:
