About Erasmus+
Studying abroad as part of your degree brings many benefits. Research shows that students who study abroad acquire 'transversal skills', which are highly valued by employers, as graduates with international experience fare better in the job market.
The Erasmus+ Exchange Programme allows students studying in Europe to spend time in Waterford, Ireland and WIT students to experience life at other European Institutes/Universities.

If you are a student studying in Europe looking to study at WIT as part of your degree and your Institute/University has an Erasmus+ exchange partnership with WIT, you could have the opportunity to study at WIT on the Erasmus+ Programme.

Full-time, registered WIT students opting for exchange studies in Europe can spend either one semester or a full academic year at one of our partner Institutes/Universities. We have inter-institutional agreements with over 100 higher education institutes within the EU.
