European University Erasmus Office is thrilled to extend a collegial invitation to the summer edition of the Erasmus+ International Staff Week. This distinguished event is scheduled to unfold from June 3rd to 7th, 2024, encompassing three days in Tbilisi and two days in Kutaisi, acknowledging our partnership with Kutaisi University, which shares ownership with European University.

Who Should Attend:

We cordially invite International Office representatives, Erasmus managers, and vice rectors or vice deans overseeing internationalization at their respective institutions to join us for this enriching experience. Whether you are an existing partner dedicated to strengthening collaborations or a university aspiring to forge new ties, your presence will be invaluable.
