The “Erasmus” programme was originally established by the European Union in 1987. It looked to promote closer cooperation between universities and higher education institutions across Europe.

This meant setting up an organised and integrated system of cross-border student interchange. Over time, the Erasmus Programme has expanded and is now known as “Erasmus+”.

Its extended form is a broad umbrella framework which combines the former EU’s different schemes for transnational cooperation and mobility in education, training, youth and sport in Europe. Increasingly, Erasmus is looking beyond Europe to include other countries.
