It plans to evaluate the offer of study programs or special classes in some of the European Union languages as well, to make them more attractive as well as to facilitate the integration of foreign students and invited professors within academic exchanges. Barleti aims to create mobility opportunities for students in all its study programs and in all study cycles. Mobility for Master’s degree students has been increasing year by year, along with the introduction of our second cycle programs. The Office of International Relations (IRO) works closely with program coordinators to determine the best partners, with the best exchange opportunities. The institution plans special funds to give program coordinators the opportunity to visit potentially partner institutions. The IRO participates in meetings with potential partners to form its own opinions and beliefs in the service of the process and to take measures for the readiness, procedures, and infrastructures of reception, accommodation, visits, etc.

One of the best benefits for students of Barleti, is the possibility to spend at least one semester abroad, with an Erasmus+ program. This opportunity is for students of all faculties. Barleti has a wide range of cooperation agreements with different universities in Europe and not only. We can mention Erasmus agreements with Transilvania University of Brasov, University of Szczecin Poland, Janos University of Applied Sciences, Hungary, West Attica University – Greece, Sakarya University of Applied Sciences, University of South Bohemia, Les Ribeira do Louro - Vigo, Spain etc. Not only Erasmus agreements, but there are also a high number of signed Memoranda of Agreements,such as with Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University, Marmara University, Notre Dame University, Beirut, Lebanon etc. Each semester, we send our students abroad and host foreign students, as well.

Before the mobility, Erasmus Coordinators of both universities cooperate with each other by asking and receiving the necessary documentation. According to the case, this documents might include Mobility agreements (teaching or training, if it is staff mobility), Nomination Letter, invitation letter, scan of passport etc. Regarding students’ exchange, preliminary documents usually include Learning agreement (in which students should choose their subjects), passport, transcript of Records, Confirmation of language competences on B2 level, scan of passport etc. Sometimes, visa is required.
Students’ mobility includes 3-5 months, whereas staff exchange is for a period of 5 week days.

Activities held during the stay
During their stay in Barleti University, students, of course will take lectures together with the Albanian students of our university. Lectures are held in English, and students will fulfil all their academic obligations in Barleti, even their final assessment. At the end of their semester, they will have the right number of credits required for the next semester. In addition, they will benefit from all the other facilities of Barleti, all the spaces dedicated to students, entertainment activities, student clubs etc.
Whereas lecturers who join Barleti, will have the chance to meet our staff, who is always welcoming their foreign colleagues, aiming to strengthen the relation between universities and also to develop ways for research projects, networking, academic collaborations etc. Except of meetings with the academics, they will sometimes have to deliver lectures (in English) for our students, or other activities depending on their field of study.
