ERASMUS+ at OVGU

The ERASMUS University Coordinator of the OVGU is Ms. Reena Schliephake. Together with the staff of the International Office, she organizes and coordinates all ERASMUS activities of the university (lecturer, staff and student mobility).

The OVGU has been involved in the programme since 1991 and received the ERASMUS University Charter for the first time in 2003. It contains the principles that apply to ERASMUS activities. Only those universities that hold this university charter are eligible for funding under the ERASMUS programme. The OVGU currently cooperates with 129 Erasmus partners from 28 countries in the areas of student and teacher mobility and curriculum development.

An overview of our commitments can be found in the ERASMUS University Charter.
