Erasmus Strategy Statement 2021-2027

ESCP Business School aims to attract the best international students (EU and non-EU) to its Masters and PhD programmes, to enhance student mobility within and outside Europe and to develop joint academic research.

1. To achieve this, we develop partnerships with the best academic institutions. We favour partners with academic excellence and international recognition and accreditation (AMBA, AACSB, EQUIS).
2. We wish to strengthen our presence in Eastern Europe, South East Asia, Latin America and Africa.
3. Our goal is to recruit the best international students, especially from these regions, and also to offer more destinations for international mobility - exchange and double degree programmes - of our Master in Management (MiM) students. Staff mobility in Europe is also promoted to encourage the exchange of best practices.

Finally, we promote double degrees so that our students have academic recognition in the host country if they wish to establish themselves there.

ESCP Business School, as a global European business school with 5 campuses (Paris, London,Berlin, Madrid, Turin), promotes European education and values.

It aims to:

1. contribute to the development of European academic excellence and promote European diversity through the increasing recruitment of European students and student mobility;
2. train our students in the European specificity and values that European companies need; we hope to contribute to the training of European citizens that our students are and will become
3. to develop cooperation with the best European academic institutions for joint research projects, for example on the theme of financial regulation, innovation, or public-private partnerships (PPP) in Europe;
4. to strengthen European funding through alternative sources of funding.

For example, we intend to implement these projects with the help of the new Erasmus programmes, the so-called new generation. Without a strong involvement in these Erasmus programmes with close European partners and without the accompanying European financial support, these programmes would be considered incomplete.

The Erasmus+ scheme enables students to receive a financial grant for a study period and/or internship in European countries (list below).
You can benefit from this grant regardless of income conditions for study periods. See the section ‟eligibility conditions” for traineeship mobility.
Please note that no grant is processed until the student receives official approval from the Erasmus Team.

Inclusion and diversity are a strong priority of the European Commission. Therefore, the aim of the Erasmus Program is to promote equal opportunities for students who have fewer opportunities because of their social, economic or cultural background, their disability, their origin or their place of residence.

The Commission has defined 5 criteria which allow the students concerned to receive a top-up grant of €250 to the monthly Erasmus scholarship.
