Erasmus+ applications for internships starting up to and including 31 August 2026 are currently being accepted and funded under Project 2025.

Attention – Important Update: Internships in programme countries that start between 1 September 2026 and 30 September 2026 and end no later than 28 February 2027 should still be applied for under Project 2025 via Placement Online, as funding remains available within this project. Students applying under Project 2025 may still benefit from Erasmus+ funding for up to 135 days and, if eligible, from the Top-Up for employed students.

• For internships starting between 01 September 2026 and 31 December 2026, registration will be possible from 24 June 2026.
• For internships starting between 01 January 2027 and 31 August 2027, registration will be possible from 02 November 2026.

Further information can be found here

Registrations for the Winter Semester 2026/2027 and the Summer Semester 2027 are possible since 5 May 2026.

Please note that, from the 2026/2027 academic year onwards, students of Pforzheim University and Furtwangen University must apply directly to their respective home institutions for Erasmus+ funding for study abroad periods.

In Project 2026, both study mobility periods (SMS) and traineeship mobility periods (SMP) will only be financially funded for a maximum of 105 days. As compensation, the monthly gross salary limit for internships will be increased from EUR 1,500 to EUR 2,000. The Top-Up for employed students will no longer be available.

Reminder: Under Project 2025, mobility periods are still financially funded for up to 135 days. The monthly gross salary limit for internships is EUR 1,500, and the Top-Up for employed students can still be applied for.

_{*Update: 16.06.2026*}

The United Kingdom and Switzerland will continue to be classified as Erasmus partner countries until and including the 2026/27 academic year. Starting with the 2027 Erasmus+ project cycle, both countries will once again participate fully in the Erasmus+ programme as programme countries. The first mobilities under this new status will be possible from the 2027/28 academic year onwards.

What does this mean for you?

Internships funded under Project 2026, i.e. those in:

• Application Round 1 (internship start between 1 September 2026 and 31 December 2026)
• Application Round 2 (internship start between 1 January 2027 and 31 August 2027)

will continue to be funded as mobilities to partner countries. For these internships, only limited funding and a restricted number of places per home university are available. We therefore recommend submitting your complete application documents as soon as possible after the start of the respective application round.

From Project 2027 onwards (for internships starting on or after 1 September 2027), the United Kingdom and Switzerland will once again be treated as programme countries. The previous restrictions applicable to partner countries will no longer apply.

Funding is awarded on a first come, first served basis. The decisive factor is the date on which the complete, correctly completed, and signed application documents are received. Registration alone is not sufficient.

This is particularly important for applications for internships in partner countries (non-European internships), as only limited funding and a limited number of places per home university are available. Applicants are therefore strongly encouraged to submit their complete application as soon as possible after registration opens for a new application round.

Erasmus+ funding is subject to the availability of financial resources. Once all funds allocated to the current projects have been exhausted, no further funding commitments can be made.

The available Erasmus+ funding places for internships in partner countries (outside the EU) have already been fully allocated for the Summer Semester 2026 at several universities and higher education institutions. As a result, new registrations for internships outside the EU, EEA, Türkiye, Serbia, and North Macedonia can no longer be accepted from students of the consortium partners listed below. For internships starting on or after 1 September 2026, the quotas will become available again.

• Academy of Fine Arts Karlsruhe (ABK Karlsruhe)
• Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart (ABK Stuttgart)
