It is therefore recommended that students interested in studying at the University of Basilicata as part of an exchange programme should contact their Institution’s International Relations Office or the Erasmus Coordinators’ to enquire whether there is a bilateral agreement in place between the home institution and University of Basilicata.
Students participating in the Erasmus programme are required to complete a series of on-line documents. These documents include an incoming student application form and learning agreement (both of which have to be completed and sent on-line, then printed out and sent by fax to the University with the passport photo).
