WIUT and Erasmus+
Over the years, WIUT has secured several funding opportunities offered by the Erasmus+. With the help of the Erasmus+ program, WIUT adopts international knowledge from EU institutions and transfers this knowledge to our students. As a part of Erasmus+ programs, WIUT has introduced a number of new modules and keeps developing new content and updating existing subjects to foster skills among students that are in demand in the fast-changing labor market.
WIUT projects funded by Erasmus+
WIUT has increasingly participated in projects under the Action 2 Capacity Building in Higher Education program and the Jean Monnet Action Program. WIUT has three capacity-building projects, three Jean Monnet grants, and has also hosted an essay competition among students who participated in an exchange program under the International Credit Mobility Action.
