Brexit, the UK and Erasmus+

It is still possible to go on staff mobility for training purposes in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland provided your journey finishes before 31 May 2023.

If you go on staff mobility for teaching purposes, you can go to the institutions with which we still have a valid Erasmus+ exchange agreement in these four countries and as long as you return before 31 May 2023. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to erasmus@oslomet.no.

For our students there will also be possible to travel to the institutions with which we still have a valid Erasmus+ agreement, provided they are there for a minimum of 60 days prior to 31 May 2023.  

British institutions cannot be included as programme countries in project applications with deadline in 2021 and the years to come. 

However, projects with a UK partner that were approved in 2020 or earlier, can go on with the cooperation as planned throughout the initially approved project period. 

OsloMet is looking at opportunities to establish favourable bilateral agreements with the UK.  

The Turing scheme 

The UK has established its own mobility programme (turing-scheme.org.uk) for cooperation with the EU and the rest of the world. The mobility programme is available for UK students only, to enable them to go on exchange to the rest of the world. 

Taith

Wales has prepared a separate programme (taith.wales) applicable for the period 2022-2026 that will include both students and staff. 30% of the scholarships may be used for incoming students and staff to Wales.

Employees
