Blended Intensive Programmes (BIP) form an innovative component of the current generation of Erasmus+ Programmes from 2021-2027. They offer students and teachers new and creative possibilities in international educational cooperation and participation in collaboratively conceived courses. The combination of short-term international exchange and cooperative online learning across institutions lies at the core of any BIP.

• participation of at least 3 universities from 3 different countries participating in the Erasmus+ programme.
• a short stay of 5 to 30 days with physical presence at one of the participating universities in combination with a virtual learning phase of no prescribed duration (before, during, or after)
• participation of at least 10 mobile students with at least 3 ECTS credits accredited per person by their local university
• BIP can either be embetted in an existing curriculum or offered separately as a specific programme
• the host university receives sponsorship for the organisation and local execution of a BIP
• mobility students receive sponsorship via Erasmus+ programme allowances: 79 € per day for the first 14 days and 56 € daily for days 15-30, respectively. It is possible to receive additional top-ups (for green travel and for students with, among other things, chronic illness, accompanying child, employment, etc.).
• mobile teachers receive sponsorship from the Erasmus+ Staff Mobility Programme.

The International Office is happy to support you, if you intend to conduct a BIP with your students, be it at HTW Berlin itself or at a partner university.
