Blended Intensive Programmes are short-term study mobilities for students that combine a physical and virtual component. By enabling new and more flexible mobility formats that combine physical mobility with a virtual part, blended intensive programmes aim at reaching all types of students from all backgrounds, study fields and cycles.
Generally, the physical mobility lasts 5 days (excluding travel time), while the compulsory virtual component can take part before or after the physical component and it is meant to facilitate collaborative online learning exchange and teamwork.
A blended mobility for studies must award a minimum of 3 ECTS credits.
