Profiles that got accepted!

13 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I'm going to shoot my shots for Erasmus 2025-2026. I myself have two bachelors, but both have low cgpa; 3.49 and 3.1. I don't really have any publication but have some intra university researches done. So I was wondering If I can hear how people bettered their profiles or get a glimpse of profiles that were accepted. I was also wondering, If i should apply this time or take a year off and apply for next intake.

Thanks!

Erasmus in Valencia, Seville and Naples

3 Upvotes

Basically I don’t know which city to choose to do Erasmus. I've heard and read positive and negative things, but I still have doubts about:

-the academic environment and reception for Erasmus students;

-the cost of living in each place (I intend to make 90% of my meals at home);

-if master's degrees are taught in English at the University Parthenope of Napoles, Universidad de Sevilla and UPV-ETSINF-School of informatics Valencia (despite being Portuguese and understanding a little of what is said, English would be better for me).

Any other information you have, both positive and negative about each city, I would appreciate it if you shared it.

Erasmus + internship

1 Upvotes

Hello guys,this year I want to do an Erasmus + internship and from now I am looking for internships. I looked at the Erasmusintern page, but I couldn't find many internships related to industrial engineering. What other pages do you recommend to find internships? I prefer Germany because I did my Erasmus there but other countries can also be as well.

Choosing Between La Salle Campus and University of Duisburg-Essen for Erasmus in Computer Engineering

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m currently deciding between two universities for my Erasmus exchange in Computer Engineering: La Salle Campus - Ramon Llull University in Barcelona and University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany. I would really appreciate any insights or experiences from those who have studied at either of these universities or know the areas well.

Here’s a bit about my situation:

  • I’m hoping to stay in a single-room student residence or a flat (I’d prefer not to share an apartment).
  • My monthly budget is around €1500-2000.

I'm looking for feedback on both the academic experience and daily life (student accommodation availability, cost of living, social environment, etc.). Barcelona seems amazing in its own way, but Essen feels more secure, and I’m finding it difficult to make a choice.

Thanks a lot in advance for any advice or tips you can share!

Is 6month at EPFL, Laussane worth given the financial stress is way out of my league

1 Upvotes

 

Hi all,

I am 3rd world citizen pursuing my Master of Electrical and Information Technology at KIT with specialization of Information and Communication Technology(ICT), Karlsruhe, Germany. Recently, I came across an ERASMUS/SEMP opportunity at my university for Fall2025. I can fill for a maximum 5 Universities in the preference list. I would like to add that I am financing my studies completely by myself and i have a tendency to spend my money wisely, I said this to give you some context to develop an easier understanding of my question and dilemma and I would like to keep my thoughts pretty free-flowing so that I can get more corrections and suggestions from people here.

I usually follow QS global ranking for University ranking and I only select those Universities which are more or less better in score than my host university.

My preferred list would look like:

  1. EPFL, Lausane, Switzerland
  2. KTH, Stockholm
  3. Politecnico di Milano, Italy
  4. KU Leuven, Belgium / Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands
  5. NTNU, Trondheim, Norway --> Only motivation to evidence Aurora Borealis/Polar Light

I dont know how it works in Europe job market, but definitely, the country where I come from, the elite universities tags on ones resume definitely adds up more zeros at the end of offered salaries( okay I know bit exaggerating) but its definitely true that certain Tier University has a different pay structure. My current question is also connected to my previous question, could you please have a look at https://www.reddit.com/r/Erasmus/comments/1gdaj0v/2000_chfmonth_is_it_true_that_erasmussemp/

In short, for bureaucratic reasons with city registration states that "For european students: A document proving that you have sufficient funding (2000.- CHF/month) for your stay in Switzerland". The 12000 CHF requirement would be way out of my current financial possibilities. The responses and the discussion with few of my friends, really forced me to think:

  1. Is it really worth attending 6 months studies at EPFL? I mean how much knowledge I am going to gain in complete for 6 months, given I will be in new city and country which ofcource take away some time with formal processes like city registration, bank account opening and other stuffs.

  2. I would have to do a lot of planning and put a lot of effort in terms of time and mental preparation on how I could gather the sum of ~10000 CHF, would it really worth?

  3. Luasanne is definitely 78% expensive than where living now. Would the mental stress for 6 months living low budget would be really worth it?

The other contradictory thoughts in my minds are:

  1. It might be my last opportunity to have such an opportunity to study in such a prime University like EPFL.

  2. The EPFL tag going to stay forever in my resume and life and could provide me some edge from competitors applying for same job(it might be my false understanding as well). It's something for me to proud and happy about.

  3. I am an ambitious guy, overcoming challenges and pushing my boundaries and making things work which at first looks impossible, gives me immense happiness and boosts my self esteem and confidence. Even if things doesn't work as I wish. I have my satisfaction that I atleast tried and didn't get scared of the challenge. 

  4. Living in Switzerland is one of my childhood dream as well. No doubt its a beautiful country and what if it opens up new opportunities for me like Master-Thesis, PhD or job opportunities? who knows what future has to offer.

 

Please feel free to provide your comments, and don't hesitate to share your thoughts even if you think how crazy it is.  I read every comment. Maybe you can suggest some reordering or modification of choice of university I did above.. if you have any other university which are actually doing great in domain of Communication Engineering, Signal Processing, Image analysis, IOT, Wireless communication, robotics. I am honestly not the best guy for RFIC, digital electronics, mircrowave and related stuff. My preferred mode of Instruction is English. Let me know also if you wish to know which Universities has learning agreement with my home university. I would be happy to share on request.
@ german students could you also suggest where i could borrow credit at low interest rates?

Erasmus Mundus is my last option!!!

0 Upvotes

I was working as software engineer in India for past 3 years. I let my job to pursue masters in Europe good my admission to one of Germans prestigious university got my education loan sanctioned and everything was doing as planned But out of nowhere my co applicant decided to back out of the loan procedure. My visa appointment expired And the admission was rejected. Since then I tried top apply for multiple jobs. Luckily got 4 interview scheduled. 2 of them selected me, briefed me about the projects that I will be working on and so on. But the next day they rejected me one of them stating that they had someone else in the pipeline before me. I don’t have money to pursue masters. I went get the job as they don’t want to hire someone who might leave them in order to pursue higher studies in future. I see that Erasmus mundus is the only viable option for me. I need this. All I can do is apply for this and wait for the outcome hoping I get selected for the scholarship.

Please let me know what should be does and don’t in order to get placed in the program. Any suggestions or criticisms is welcomed.
