Erasmus+ KA 2 CD HE MILETUS project is aiming at students’ mobility capacity building at HEIs in Serbia and Ukraine while improving graduates’ employability chances and enhancing quality of PhD students’ research.
 

Among the project’s main objective are:
•Developing methodological framework for virtual and blended mobility runs encompassing guidance on best/good practices for key stakeholders (students, teaching and admin. staff of HEIs, public officers) at institutional and inter-institutional levels
•Improving students’ mobility governance at institutional level through Students’ Mobility Offices and trained teaching staff
•Developing mobility format enabling better social inclusion (students with disabilities) and underpin it with institutional solutions contributing to improved employability chances after graduation

Training will be conducted by the Partner Countries HEIs with consideration of good practices, shortcomings and potentials, students’ needs, wishes, and requirements, as well as the gaps to existing mobility programs, identified during the MILETUS WP1 implementation phase.
