Staff Teaching Assignments (STA)

Notice on Staff Mobility – September 2025
Staff mobility processes are currently under review. This page will be updated with revised procedures and a new application process as soon as these are available. 

Please note: All applications are paused until further notice. We encourage you to check back for the latest updates.

Introduction

Erasmus mobility for teaching involves University of Galway staff members travelling to one of our Erasmus partner universities to deliver a programme of teaching that may be of between 2 and 5 days' duration, to include at least 8 hours of teaching.  A condition for participation is that there must be a valid inter-institutional agreement, in the specific subject area, between University of Galway and the proposed host institution abroad, and it must include teaching staff exchange.   Participants may receive an Erasmus grant in respect of the days on which they carried out teaching duties at the partner university, as well as an allowance for time spent travelling to and from the destination.

Please note: the processes for approving Erasmus grants for staff are currently paused and we are not accepting applications at this time.
