Erasmus+ Staff Training Program

There are specific number of vacancies available per unit/service. For that reason, technical-administrative staff wishing to participate in the ERASMUS + training program at the UB should fill out the application form no later than February 23rd, 2023. In order to complete the aplication form, staff must check: units/services that are offered, recommended period for the stay and specific requirements, if applies. You can consult the offered units here.

Travelling and accommodation arrangements and costs must be covered by the participant’s home university. Participants are recommended to apply for ERASMUS+ Staff Training grants.

The ERASMUS+ Staff Training Program Week will be held at the Faculty of Physics and Faculty of Economics and Business located on Campus de la Diagonal; Faculty of Geography and History and at the Historic building located on Humanities Campus at Plaça Universitat (Universitat Square) respectively.

Campus de la Diagonal is a beautiful area located on both sides of Diagonal Avenue, the busy thoroughfare that runs across the city of Barcelona. To the north are grouped studies in legal, economic and social sciences; to the south are located experimental sciences and also the Faculties of Pharmacy and of Fine Arts. 

The University of Barcelona has always been closely tied to the history of the city of Barcelona. This is particularly true in the city center, where the University first offered studies in the Historic Building, which anchors one of the most emblematic squares in Barcelona.

With the recent move of the Faculty of Philosophy and the Faculty of Geography and History to the nearby Raval district, the University brings this close relationship full circle, strengthening UB ties with the surrounding neighborhoods and particularly with the people who live there and the institutions that count them as home.
