Guest lectureships at European partner universities (STA)
Erasmus promotes visiting lectureships at European partner universities (STA) that hold an Erasmus University Charter. Through their stay, the guest lecturers are to strengthen the European dimension of the host university, complement its teaching offer and impart their expertise to those students who cannot or do not wish to study abroad. This should include the development of joint study programs between the two partner universities and the exchange of teaching content and methods.
Teaching visits must include at least eight teaching hours in a week or shorter period of time, and a visit may last a minimum of two days and a maximum of 60 days.
The following group of persons is eligible for STA funding:
- Teachers and lecturers who have a contractual relationship with the university
- Lecturers and lecturers without endowment
- Teaching assistants
- emeritus professors and retired faculty
- academic staff
- doctoral students
