Seminar content and goals:

ERASMUS strategic partnership projects are unique opportunities for curriculum innovation with the support of European partnerships. This highly flexible funding line allows for a variety of different project design approaches. For new applicants this flexibility can be a challenge. Especially, when it comes to crucial selection criteria such as innovation and digitalization. For this, it is essential that applicants find a convincing way of aligning innovation goals, process design and the available elements of ERASMUS strategic partnership projects.

In our online seminar, we will present the project design of two ongoing strategic partnership projects as case studies from a firsthand perspective. On that basis, we will have an open discussion during which participants can join in with their own project design challenges. Please be aware that this seminar will not cover any formal application issues.
