A unique study abroad program

Erasmus + is a student exchange program that provides financial assistance to its participants. Founded in 1987 by the European Commission, the Erasmus + program aims to encourage international experiences within Europe and beyond, for university students (study abroad and internships), professors and staff.
The program encourages students to participate by awarding scholarships for these programs.

ISC Paris promotes international experiences

With the goal of giving our entire school community an international focus, ISC Paris has created policies based on three priorities:
Students mobility

ISC Paris is dedicated to expanding international opportunities by increasing the number of outgoing and incoming students, offering more double-degree programs, and raising awareness of the benefits of studying and interning abroad.

Professors mobility

ISC Paris supports our professors who want to teach at our international partner institutions; we encourage them to co-author research publications, and we offer opportunities for professors at our international partner institutions to come teach at ISC Paris.

Staff mobility

ISC Paris promotes international exchange opportunities, which encourages many of our administrative staff to take part in these programs.

An outstanding network of partners worldwide

ISC Paris ensures a truly rewarding international experience for its students by carefully selecting its partner universities based on three main criteria: academic excellence, professional opportunities (such as networking and the ability to complete a meaningful project), and the quality of student support.

To meet the diverse needs and ambitions of its students, ISC Paris is committed to offering a wide geographic range of destinations for international exchange and cooperation projects. The school maintains a global presence, with special and longstanding relationships in certain countries, making it possible for every student to find an experience that fits their goals and aspirations.

Erasmus+ scholarships

ISC Paris has been awarded the Erasmus+ charter, and receives financial support for these international programs. This scholarship helps to defray students’ travel and accommodation expenses. ISC Paris uses the “first come, first served” rule. Scholarships will be granted depending on the country and type of program:

Erasmus+: bringing down barriers to facilitate international experiences

The Erasmus+ Programme aims at promoting equity and inclusion by facilitating the access to participants with disadvantaged backgrounds and fewer opportunities compared to their peers whenever disadvantage limits or prevents participation in transnational activities.

Thus, Erasmus+ supports people facing challenges, whether they suffer some kind of disability, they come from a socio-economically disadvantaged environment or they suffer from health issues.

  • Disability (participants with special needs): people with mental (intellectual, cognitive, learning), physical, sensory or other disabilities.
  • People with chronic health problems, severe illnesses or psychiatric conditions.
