What is a Combined Intensive Programme (CIP)
The Combined Intensive Programme (CIP) is an Erasmus+ (KA1) international cooperation format that combines:
- short-term physical mobility (5-30 days),
- a mandatory virtual component (online collaboration before or after the physical part).
BIP facilitates intensive international cooperation between universities, supports innovative teaching formats and engages students and teachers in project-oriented international learning.
The programme should deliver on the key priorities of Erasmus+:
- Inclusion,
- digitalization,
- Sustainability,
- civic engagement.
Objectives of the BIP
- Strengthening international institutional cooperation,
- the development of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary projects,
- innovation of teaching methods,
- the involvement of students who cannot undertake long-term mobility,
- promoting further long-term international cooperation.
- Workshop,
- masterclass,
- summer/winter schools,
- project laboratories,
- a research or creative project.
- Involvement of at least 3 universities from 3 different programme countries (JAMU is one of them),
- participation of at least 10 international students,
- duration of physical mobility 5-30 days,
- mandatory virtual folder,
- participants receive a minimum of 3 ECTS credits.
JAMU as organizer
- Proposes the content of the programme,
- secures foreign partners,
- organizes the physical part,
- is responsible for the financial management of the project,
- handles the administration and final accounts.
The implementation is decided by the management of the faculties on the basis of an internal selection procedure and the allocation of Erasmus+ funds.
Interest in the implementation of the BIP is submitted through an internal application to the Foreign Departments of the individual faculties.
Funding is based on the number of international participants (10-20 people), for which resources are allocated in advance from the EU Erasmus+ Call.
Of this amount:
- 90% is for the implementation of the programme (including VAT),
- 10% is for the institution’s overheads.
All expenses must be:
- supported by accounting documents,
- paid in CZK/EUR,
- in accordance with Erasmus+ rules and JAMU internal regulations.
Immediately after the end of the program you must document:
- all accounting documents (no later than 10 days after the end of the programme),
- attendance sheets (signed for each day by all participants),
- a final report (written in English, form available here),
- PR materials (photos, video).
JAMU as a partner
Students and employees of JAMU can participate in BIP organized by a foreign institution. Participation in BIP is conducted as a standard short-term mobility and is approved by the faculty management.
