Networks & Partner Institutions
At CEEPUS, you can choose either a partner institution or a network for your mobility.
Networks are associations of institutes of at least 5 universities from at least 5 different partner countries. If you are interested in a network, you can contact the relevant contact person mentioned in the list below. You can only study at a partner institution abroad through a CEEPUS network in which the University of Graz is involved.
All CEEPUS courses and/or lectures are also held in English, German or French. Study or internship stays abroad must be recognised by the home university.
If you do not want to stay within a network but at a partner institution, you can also apply for a scholarship as a free mover. You will only receive a scholarship as a free mover if not all network spots are used.

However, the scholarship/grant is paid out through the CEEPUS network, not through the University of Graz.
