A4U Scholarship for Teaching/Non-teaching Staff

BINUS University proudly participates in the Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility Programme, which offers funded mobility opportunities for PhD students from Indonesia to Spain. The program is open to PhD students from all subject areas; however, applicants must ensure that their request aligns with the opportunities available at the host university.

The Alliance of 4 Universities (A4U) is a strategic partnership of four Spanish public universities: Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM), Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), and Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF) in Barcelona. One of the objectives of A4U’s internationalization strategy is to promote mobility with leading universities in non-European countries.

A4U has been awarded funding under Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility Programme, which enables students from A4U universities and partner universities to undertake a mobility stay.

The main objectives of the mobility program are:

1. To offer research and study development opportunities to students at participating universities, helping them achieve sustained improvements in their knowledge and research skills.
2. To help mobility participants enhance their professional, social, and inter-cultural skills, as well as their employability, while promoting cross-cultural exchange and dialogue.
3. To establish lasting connections between A4U universities and its partner institutions, strengthening transnational academic cooperation.

Mobilities should take place during the 2025-2026 academic year, following the academic calendar of the host institution. Exceptionally, mobility may be postponed to the 2026-2027 academic year, but must be completed by 31 July 2027.
