Start University and Mobility
Throughout the programme, you will be enrolled in a 'start university' and a second (and possibly a third) university, depending on the pathway you choose.
- YEAR 1: you always reside in your start university, unless your major specialisation requires otherwise (= exception).
- YEAR 2: you always reside in your second (major) university.
- YEAR 3 (e.g. minor): you either return to your original start university or go to a second start university.
This way you will have studied in at least 2 different universities during the BAES programme. For more information visit mobility at BAES.
Your start and final university' is always one of the degree-awarding partners:
- KU Leuven
- Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna
- Universidad Complutense de Madrid
- Uniwersytet Jagiellonski w Krakowie
Side note: your start university will not necessarily be located in your home country. If you are eligible for the programme, you will be allocated to one of these four universities, to assure an equal distribution of students over all partners.
Your major university is one of the degree-awarding partners above or one of the following mobility partners:
- Helsingin Yliopisto/Helsingfors Universitet
- Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne
- The University of Edinburgh
- Universität Zürich
- University College Dublin
- Universiteit Leiden
Depending on students’ interests in particular specializations/locations and considering the limited amount of mobility spots at mobility partner universities, the chances of getting into a specialization at one of the mobility partners may be slim. The programme therefore uses a specific mobility procedure for assigning specialisations (and locations) to students once they have started the BAES.
Students can apply for an Erasmus+ grant.
