Dear Faculty Members,
“Staff Mobility for Teaching” is a type of mobility under the Erasmus+ program which is funded by the European Commission and provides funds for short-term teaching visits by faculty members to partner institutions. At Okan University, this program is coordinated by the Office of International Programs.
Eligibility
You must be a full-time faculty member at Okan University to take part in this program.Please note that the minimum number of teaching hours required is 8 hours. The minimum number of days to stay is two, and the maximum is five. It is expected that your teaching hours are evenly balanced during the time of your stay. The program should be detailed on a daily basis in the Staff Mobility Agreement for Teaching. Faculty members and the academic units who have not participated in teaching mobility before will be given priority in the evaluations. In order to be able to take part in this mobility, there should be an agreement between the host institution and Okan University.
