ERASMUS+ Traineeship for Graduates

Call for Applications

  • New Deadline: Monday, 18 January 2027

The Erasmus Office of the University of Nicosia is currently recruiting prospective graduates to participate in the Erasmus+ Graduate Traineeship Programme. Therefore, should you be interested in joining this exciting programme make sure to submit your application on time!

Based on the Erasmus+ Impact Study, graduates who have used the Erasmus+ Programme have doubled their recruitment opportunities. 64% of employers underline that graduates with an international background are given greater professional responsibility. In addition, they also believe that international experience is important for recruitment.

  1. Be a full-time Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD student applying before graduation for a graduate traineeship
  2. Have a CPA of at least 2 out of 4
  3. Official Student Residence Permit (non-EU participants)

  1. Priority will be given to applicants who have found a host organization. However, it is not a requirement to have a letter of acceptance at this phase.
  2. Interested applicants must apply before graduating and complete their traineeship within 12 months of graduation.
  3. Students wanting to go back to their home country are given lower priority in the selection of the whole year. They will be listed last during the selection process and will be considered only if there is grant availability by the end of the project. However, if a student is selected he/she is allowed to receive the same amount as the other students, independently from their country of origin. Otherwise, a Zero Grant Mobility can be considered or be offered the minimum eligible funded period which is two months.
  4. Due to limited funds, the maximum mobility period to be funded is six months. Nevertheless, the Erasmus Grant will be discussed in detail with each participant after the selection of the successful applicants.
  5. Distance Learning participants must do their traineeship in another country other than their country of origin (permanent residence) and the country of their home University (in this case Cyprus).

The deadline for application submission is on Monday, 18 January 2027
