Horizon Europe -> Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (MSCA)

The activities supported in ICM are:

Student mobility:

It can be carried out in any study field and cycle (short cycle/bachelor/master/doctoral), and is open to recent graduates (students enrolled in their last year of studies). The physical mobility can last from 2 to 12 months or between 5 and 30 days if part of blended mobility. Student mobility can take the form of:

A study period abroad at a partner HEI,
A traineeship (work placement, internship) abroad in an enterprise, a research institute, a laboratory, an organisation or any other relevant workplace.

Blended mobility is a combination of physical mobility with a virtual component facilitating a collaborative online learning exchange and teamwork.

The two types of student mobility could be combined, if the total duration of the mobility period does not exceed the maximum of 12 months per study cycle. Virtual components of the blended mobility do not count toward the max of 12 months, as they are not covered by a grant.

Staff mobility:

It can be carried out by any type of higher education staff or by invited staff from outside the HEIs. The mobility period can last from 5 days to 2 months. It can take the form of:

A teaching period for academic staff and for invited staff from non-academic organisations to teach at a partner HEI abroad,
A training period for teaching and non-teaching staff in the form of training events abroad (excluding conferences), job shadowing, observation periods and/or training at a partner HEI.

A staff mobility period abroad can combine teaching and training activities. Any teaching or training period abroad may be carried out as a blended mobility.
