Assistance and agreements for international mobility
Students enrolled in the Food Science and Technology degree programme can access the Erasmus+ programme from their second year of enrolment, benefiting from scholarships of varying lengths of 4-10 months at universities with which international agreements are in place.
The selection is carried out each year on the basis of criteria that take into account the university career, the language skills required by the destination and personal motivation. Selected students are supported both before their departure and throughout their journey abroad in the choice and development of their programme of study by the course contact person for international mobility.
The intrenship abroad for the purpose of obtaining a degree can be carried out either within the Erasmus+ project or at universities or organisations that have a mobility agreement with the University of Parma.
In addition, as part of the Erasmus+ Internship programme and following appropriate selection, students can carry out extra-curricular training placements in foreign-based companies or institutions for up to 12 months after graduation.
In order to coordinate the University's central activity with that at departmental level, the International Mobility Committee is established within the Department.
The Department of Food and Drug Sciences Committee on International Mobility has been established to coordinate international mobility activities Commissione per la mobilita internazionale.
Person in charge of international mobility activities of Nutrition Sciences students: Prof. Luca Dellafiora
