EU-US ATLANTIS – Excellence in Mobility Project 2012/13

Promoting student and faculty mobility in the area of Business Studies

As a part of the EU US ATLANTIS – Excellence in Mobility Project and funded by the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA), Aston Business School offers its students an opportunity to benefit from a one-year study placement at one of our partner universities in the United States of America:
Drexel University of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or San Diego State University, California.

Visit our partners:   http://www.drexel.edu/    http://www.sdsu.edu

Priority will be given to students with a strong academic record, as well as the ability to engage with the intercultural agenda.  These criteria must be demonstrated in the letter of motivation and interview.  BSc in International Business and Management (IBAM) students from Home/EU who meet these criteria will be given first priority as they are required to spend their placement year outside the UK.

A limited number of bursaries are available (4,000€ + travel cost of up to 1,000€).

More information on placement opportunities: internationaplacement@aston.ac.uk

Our European partner in this project is Mannheim Business School*.

All partners are committed to promoting international education and to offering students and staff the opportunity of studying or working overseas.

The Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) is responsible for the management of parts of the European funding opportunities and networks in the fields of education and training, citizenship, youth, audiovisual and culture. More information on EACEA: http://eacea.ec.europa.eu
