# Study Abroad
**Source**: https://www.uniroma1.it/en/pagina/study-abroad
**IMPORTANT NOTICE\
\
Please note that the mobility offices are now in building CU016 (Ortopedia), third floor.**
Sapienza offers its students numerous opportunities for study, research and internships abroad: in and outside Europe, for short stays or longer periods, dissertations abroad, and much more.
During your study pathway, you can spend a training period at a Sapienza partner university or a foreign company in over 60 countries worldwide, up to a maximum of 12 months per study cycle. You can attend courses, take examinations, do an internship or research for a disseration that will be fully recognised in your academic career without extending the duration of your pathway.
To this end, you will receive a financial contribution; in some cases, there are also additional resources for students with fewer opportunities. On this page, you will find an overview of these opportunities and can choose the one that best suits your expectations. Click on the links to find out more!
Whichever path you choose, **remember that:**
1. You must know the language used for teaching by the university where you will study or the language used by the company where you will work, which is not always the country's language. Many universities offer courses in English.
2. The Centro Linguistico di Ateneo (CLA) organises language tests from September to February 2023 (link <https://web.uniroma1.it/cla> - In Italian). Check whether passing the test is compulsory for the programme you are interested in.
3. Depending on the programme, you must have passed a minimum number of credits or have a minimum grade average, etc. Always check the requirements in the Calls.
4. Prepare the documents for the recognition of credits earned abroad in advance, following the instructions in the Call.

Mobility for study means attending courses, passing exams at the foreign university of destination, and earning credits to be subsequently recognised by Sapienza.
Mobility for dissertation research involves the possibility of carrying out research to prepare your dissertation at the foreign university of destination, with the award of credits to be recognised by Sapienza.
Combining study and dissertation research in the same mobility period is possible.

### **Recognition of activities carried out abroad**
For the recognition of credit mobility, all credits earned during a study period abroad or during a virtual mobility - as agreed in the Learning Agreement (LA) and confirmed by the Transcript of Records (ToR) - are recognised as transferred and used in full for the award of the degree, without requiring the student to undertake any further learning activity or test.
The definition of Credits (Credito Formativo universitario CFU) given in DM 270/04 is based, like ECTS credits, on learning time (rather than teaching) and learning outcomes (rather than curriculum content), understood not only as knowledge but also as skills.

### Technical and administrative staff
The Erasmus+ Programme supports all European education and training initiatives, including the "Staff Mobility for Training" programme. It is an important professional training opportunity for technical and administrative staff who will be spending a short time at a higher education institution in one of the programme countries or a company.
Staff Mobility is either a period of shadowing to be carried out independently in offices similar to those of the employee's own or training events organised by other European universities on topics relevant to the employee's work. The objective is to transfer expertise and acquire practical skills and good practices.
