In line with its internationalization strategy, our university successfully implemented a wide range of academic and student mobility activities within the scope of the Erasmus+ KA171 International Credit Mobility (ICM) Program throughout 2025.

Within this framework, a total of 53 academic staff members carried out teaching mobility activities at partner higher education institutions located in Argentina, India, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, New Zealand, Malaysia, Moldova, Jordan, Algeria, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Colombia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Morocco, the Philippines, Tunisia, South Africa, Belarus, Peru, Albania, Tanzania, and the United States of America. These teaching activities significantly strengthened the University’s academic cooperation across different regions and enhanced its international academic visibility.

During the same period, 29 academic staff members from Albania, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Jordan, Tunisia, South Africa, Uzbekistan, India, Ukraine, Moldova, Uganda, Algeria, Azerbaijan, Chile, and Belarus visited our university to conduct teaching activities. Their contributions played an important role in promoting knowledge exchange, fostering intercultural interaction, and reinforcing sustainable academic partnerships.

In addition to staff mobility, 11 students from Belarus, Algeria, Uganda, Ukraine, and Kyrgyzstan participated in traineeship and study mobility activities at our university, gaining valuable academic and professional experience in an international environment.

Moreover, 4 students from our university completed traineeship mobility activities at partner institutions in Peru, Albania, and Algeria, which contributed to their professional development and international work experience.

For the mobility activities carried out within the scope of the Erasmus+ KA171 ICM Program in 2025, a total grant amounting to approximately 160,000 euros was utilized. These activities made a significant contribution to the university’s internationalization objectives, academic quality enhancement, and student-centered education approach.

Our University will continue to expand its international partnership network and offer new mobility opportunities for academic staff and students within the framework of the Erasmus+ KA171 International Credit Mobility Program in the coming years.
