Employment statistics (Almalaurea)
Within the Erasmus+ project, the School of Sport Sciences offers to its Bachelor's students in Sport and Health Sciences to spend part of their time for academic formation by one among fifteen prestigious European partner universities localised in Spain, Portugal, France, Austria, Norway, Hungary, Poland and Turkey. Erasmus students will have from 2 to a maximum of 12 month each cycle for their Erasmus formation. Remarkably, some University require a certificate demonstrating the level of student's language competence, which is compulsory for admission. During Erasmus, students will have the possibility to attend courses included in their academic curriculum and integrate their formation with alternative and optional courses that are typical of the University geographical contest (e.g. water-base sport, diving, sailing, trekking, skiing ). Alternatively, students could choose for a research-oriented experience and being actively involved in research programs useful for their thesis preparation. They could also have the possibility to perform their external training in centres agreed upon the partner University. Once back to the University of Milan, the passed exams and their relative credits will be integrated in the students' study plan, after ECTS/CFU conversion.
