Bakgrunn og utfordringar:
Studies show that a period spent abroad not only enriches students'
lives in the academic field but also in the acquisition of intercultural skills
and self-reliance. Staff exchanges have similar beneficial effects, both for the
people participating and for the home and host institutions.
In
addition to mobility actions, the Programme supports higher education
institutions to work together through intensive programmes, networks and
multilateral projects.
Few, if any, programmes launched by the European
Union have had a similar Europe-wide reach. Around 90% of European universities
take part in Erasmus and 2 million students have participated since it started
in 1987. The annual budget is in excess of €440million, more than 4,000 higher
education institutions in 31 countries participate, and even more are waiting to
join.

Strategi:
Objectives and actions Erasmus has become a driver in the modernisation of higher education in Europe and inspired the establishment of the Bologna Process. The general aim of the Programme is to create a European Higher Education Area and foster innovation throughout Europe. Erasmus became part of the EU's Lifelong Learning Programmein 2007 and expanded to cover new areas such as student placements in enterprises (transferred from the Leonardo da Vinci programme), university staff training and teaching for enterprise staff. The Programme seeks to expand its mobility actions even further in coming years, with the target of 3 million Erasmus students by 2012.
