            Erasmus Policy Statement<\/h3>

            UoL offers an \u2018international\u2019 education both in program content and instructors with distinguished visiting faculty from around the world. The Erasmus programme supports and strengthens this objective and adds another dimension to this mission with the partnerships with European institutions via the Erasmus programme. UoL \u00a0is committing to maintain the international elements in its programmes, carefully select its visiting faculty and maintain the founding principles of the organisation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

              UoL believes in the invaluable benefits that can be gained from the Erasmus experience, will actively promote the programme and encourage students, faculty and staff to participate in Erasmus. UoL also commits to actively search for more partner institutions and to form bilateral agreements in its efforts to create a wider selection of options when it comes to mobility. This is being set as a priority and is currently being pursued.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                The selection of students in Erasmus exchanges will be based on academic merit, their personal statement of intent that will be required in their application for the programme and their potential to benefit from the programme. The Erasmus Student Selection Committee might conduct a personal interview with candidates to assess the character and commitment of applicant \u2013 both for incoming and outgoing students. The student body of UoL includes 22 different nationalities. All programmes at UoL follow the ECTS model and Erasmus students at UoL will be enrolled under ECTS.<\/span><\/p>

                UoL supports modernisation in higher education by employing blended learning techniques and by offering an electronic portal and an electronic library to all students.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                  UoL will promote faculty mobility to its resident faculty. Special priority will be given to attract Erasmus incoming faculty, in order to complement the already strong international faculty profile of the institute. UoL has visiting faculty from over 20 universities from around the world, who are recruited to teach at UoL under a bilateral agreement between the faculty and UoL.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                    UoL, being a business school, will primarily approach other business schools to become partners or other institutions with a similar profile. The curricula of the partner institutions should either be similar or complement the one of UoL in order for the latter to extend its academic offering.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
