The Erasmus SMT grant is available for internships abroad which last between 2 and 12 months. Both compulsory internships according to the curriculum and voluntary, academically relevant internships are eligible.
The application for an Erasmus SMT grant must be submitted to the UAS service unit International Office at least four weeks before the start of the internship.

Students of the study programmes Dietetics, Physiotherapy, and Social Work have the following two options to complete an internship abroad:
Internship Abroad via a Partner University in Europe
The internship can either be embedded in a study abroad programme at a partner university or be a regular internship abroad with supervision from the partner university. The registration for such a semester abroad takes place in-house, and strict application deadlines apply (see Outgoing Students). Depending on the duration of the internship period itself, the internship can either be organised as a Student Mobility for Studies (SMS) or a Student Mobility for Traineeships (SMT).
It is recommended to contact the partner university 6 months before the start of the planned internship abroad in order to receive help in finding a suitable internship position.
The contact person is the international coordinator of your study programme.
Vocational Internship Only
The weekly hours required according to the curriculum in the internship semester are completed in a blocked manner at the St. Pölten UAS upon agreement with the Academic Director. The choice of the internship provider is not bound to a university, but assistance may be offered by one of our partner universities (see information above).

In addition, students have the opportunity to take interactive online language courses to improve their language skills before and during their stay abroad.
