• Programme coordinator: university staff member (lead in subject/department/institute)
• Participation of at least 3 Erasmus partner universities from 3 programme countries, universities from partner countries optional (financing conditions still unclear)
• Suitable for students and university staff
• Duration: at least 5 | max. 30 days physical group mobility, combined with compulsory virtual phase (duration is not specified)
• Virtual component: before, during or after the mobility, collaborative online learning, exchange and teamwork, simultaneous completion of learning objectives
• Minimum: 10 mobile student participants plus lecturers
• Minimum: 3 ECTS for students (documentation provided via transcript of records after the BIP measure)
• Reporting:
  • Programme coordinator submits a report (qualitative and quantitative) on the results of the BIP to the Erasmus+ university coordinator
  • Participants subject participant reports in the corresponding EU tool.
• The applicant university receives the following funds for the BIP:
  • Overhead funds: €400 per participant, maximum amount: €8,000.
• The universities that send participants will pay the following funds to these persons (approvals are subject to the NA DAAD allocating sufficient funding):
  • Scholarship funds: 5-14 days = 79 EUR/day, 15-30 days = 56 EUR/day, additional financial top-ups available for environmentally-friendly travel and for persons at a disadvantage

The funds are applied for annually in February via the International Office at the National Agency for Erasmus, NA DAAD.

The programme coordinator’s application must therefore be submitted by the end of January at the latest using the planned BIP registration form (see download on the left). Notification of funding is expected in June/July of that year.

The programme coordinator should then undertake detailed planning, the call for applications and public relations work for the BIP over the summer.
