Ab sofort können sich Studierende, Personal und Organisierende über die Erasmus+ Programme „Kurzzeitmobilitäten“ und „Blended Intensive Programs (BIPs)“ auf der Website von BOKU-IR informieren. Eine Erasmus+ Kurzzeitmobilität ist eine physische Auslandsmobilität für Studierende, ergänzt durch einen virtuellen Teil. Für Doktoratsstudierende ist sie auch ohne virtuelle Komponente absolvierbar. Studierende, die nicht die Möglichkeit haben, einen längerfristigen Erasmus+ Studien- oder Praktikumsaufenthalt oder eine mehrmonatige Forschung zu absolvieren, können mit einer Erasmus+ Kurzzeitmobilität ins Ausland gehen. Kurzzeitmobilitäten können in Programm- und Partnerländern weltweit absolviert werden. Bei Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programs (BIPs) handelt es sich um kurze Gruppenmobilitäten, an denen sowohl BOKU-Studierende, als auch -Personal teilnehmen können. BIPs gelten als Variante von Erasmus+ Kurzzeitmobilitäten. BIPs bestehen aus einem physischen und einem virtuellen Teil und werden von einem Zusammenschluss aus mindestens 3 Hochschulen aus 3 verschiedenen Ländern durchgeführt. Durch BIPs sollen die Nutzung innovativer Lern- und Lehrmethoden gefördert und die Möglichkeiten der Online-Kooperation genutzt werden. In transnationalen und interdisziplinären Teams können aktuelle gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen bearbeitet werden. Weitere Informationen: |
From now on, information about the Erasmus+ programmes "Short-term mobility" and "Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs)" is available on the BOKU-IR website for students, staff and organising institutions. An Erasmus+ Short-term Mobility is a short physical mobility abroad for students, complemented by a virtual part. PhD students can also complete it without a virtual component. Students who do not have the opportunity to undertake a longer-term Erasmus+ study stay, internship or several months long research abroad, can take advantage of the programme Erasmus+ Short-term Mobility. Short-term mobilities can be completed in programme and partner countries worldwide. Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) are short group mobilities in which both BOKU students and staff can participate. BIPs are considered a variant of Erasmus+ Short-term Moblities. BIPs consist of a physical and a virtual part and are carried out by a consortium of at least 3 universities from 3 different countries. BIPs aim to promote the use of innovative learning and teaching methods and to exploit the possibilities of online collaboration. Current societal challenges can be addressed in transnational and interdisciplinary teams. Further information:

Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme, Iceland | Land Art & Environmental Design Workshop 31 July – 10 August 2025 at Agricultural University of Iceland | Application deadline: 7 May 2025
In-situ experiential workshop exploring Iceland's natural environment: water, in the form of glaciers, rivers, geysers and lakes; fire, embodied by volcanoes, lava fields and basalt rocks; air, shaped by intense wind, open sky horizons and pure northern atmosphere; and earth, characterized by extensive meadows, rugged mountains and fertile wetlands.
An experiential workshop focused on exploring, understanding and conceptualizing the territory through various land art and nature-based design approximations. This includes sensory immersion in Andakill scenery, where participants explore and develop projects that foster coexistence between humans and the Icelandic natural environment.
The site-oriented workshop is proposed as a cross-disciplinary approach, led by practitioners and academics in the national and international context, aimed at students from diverse fields.
The Summer Workshop on Land Art is a multidisciplinary international program open to students pursuing a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree in environmental design disciplines, art, architecture, environmental sciences, and related fields.

Erasmus+ BIP DS-Food Summer School SH: Design of Sustainable Food Systems Teaser: 6-13 July 2025 at Alpine Study Centre, Pieve Tesino, Italy | Application deadline: 14 May 2025
The 5th edition of the international summer school “DS-FOOD - Design of sustainable food systems” arises from the growing attention that the issue of sustainability of food systems has gained at the international level. The Farm-to-Fork strategy launched by the European Union in 2020 brings agri-food issues to the heart of the European Green Deal, pushing for a transition of food systems towards a condition of sustainability that can lead to environmental, social, and economic benefits. This approach aims to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (especially SDG 12: sustainable production and consumption).
The summer school is a Blended Intensive Program, co-funded by Erasmus+, which includes a virtual component (1 day, 25 June 2025) and a physical mobility (8 days, from 6 to 13 July 2025) at the premises of the Alpine Studies Centre. The language of the summer school is English.
BOKU students can apply for a Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme funding if they fulfil all requirements.
Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme "Internet of Things and 3D Printing" 19-23 May 2025 at University of Serbia, Serbia | Application deadline: 31 January 2025
This BIP is organised by the University of Novi Sad, in collaboration with University of Porto, Portugal, Université Paris-Saclay, France and the Arctic University of Norway and open to all interested students from EU Member States and third countries associated to the Erasmus+ Programme.
BIP vision:
Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the significant trends in modern technology. Internet-enabled devices are omnipresent and always connected to the Internet and to each other. Their application ranges from personal, such as mobile phones, smart home appliances to the wide industrial scale, such as production line monitoring and connected cars. Their constant connectivity generates large amounts of data, which is used for analysis, resulting in reduction of costs, improved safety, and an overall increase in quality of life.
It is inevitable that today’s students will encounter IoT in their future jobs. Therefore, it is of crucial importance for the students to be introduced to the underlying principles, technologies, and procedures of IoT, truly understand its impact and be able to use it in their work.
As for teachers, they must be aware of the vast scope and depth of the IoT, how it relates to modern education, and how to integrate it with the ‘classical’ disciplines taught in academia.
3D printing was until recently reserved for expensive industrial applications or dedicated hobbyists. Nowadays, with the emergence of affordable, easy-to-use 3D printers and software tools, prototyping, and manufacturing of IoT devices is within the grasp of secondary and higher educational institutions. The way of thinking and methods of 3D design should be included in curricula to bring together theory and practice, with the goal of enabling students to produce prototype devices and use them in their work.
Virtual part: 1 April - 9 May 2025
