UEBA has an excellent tradition with cooperation of partners not only with EU partners, but also with Non-EU partners. According to the Internationalization strategy and Erasmus Policy Statement, UEBA aims to increase number of foreign mobilities with respect to quality. One of the goal of Erasmus Policy Statement is to strenghten the status of the university in international field and making favorable conditions for development of cooperation with European and Non-European partners. The project was an excellent tool for achieving these goals, as it allowed the EU to conclude new partnerships in the country and strengthen existing ones.One of the goal within the project was to efficiently used the funds and to make as many mobility as possible while maintaining the rightful use of funds.The funds was allocated to 27 mobilities, while UEBA realised 42 students, teaching and training mobilities. Within the goal stated at the beginning of project was effective lenght adjustment of mobilities. UEBA collaborated with 3 partners, in China, Kenya and Mauritius.

The project was aimed at enhancing and widening of the internationalization at the University of Economics in Bratislava (UEBA) through the development of cooperation with universities in third countries, especially with those, with which previously UEBA has not had developed/any cooperation. The mobility of academic staff and students contributed to the internationalization of teaching and learning at the University of Economics in Bratislava and at partner universities. Professional links at institutional level and individual level between academics at UEBA and at partner universities established during the project ensure the sustainability of the cooperation after the project lifetime.

The project was a successful tool to strengthen the attractiveness of the University of Economics in Bratislava (hereinafter the EU in Bratislava) in an international context. One of the main goals of the EU in Bratislava within the framework of the EPS and the internationalization strategy is to strengthen international cooperation with renowned institutions around the world and to expand the portfolio with partners with whom cooperation is based on beneficial project cooperation. Within the given project, EU in Bratislava managed to deepen existing cooperation with partners with whom it cooperated within the previous Erasmus + projects and establish cooperation with new partners. The main goal of the project across all institutions involved was to provide opportunity for students, academic and non-academic staff to realize mobility activities and thus contribute to the internationalization of education, science and research at the participating institutions.A total of 43 mobilities were implemented within the project, which we consider a great success and the second highest number of mobilities under the grant scheme, which the university has implemented since 2016. In addition, the project was affected by the coronavirus pandemic, which had a significant negative impact on the implementation of the planned mobilities. Despite these facts, we consider the project to be successful. A total of 5 countries within Asia and Africa and 6 institutions (2 of them in Bhutan) were involved in the project. A total of 23 outgoing and 20 incoming mobilities (including zero-grant mobilities) were completed within the project.The project had a positive impact on the institutions involved as well as on the participants themselves, and the project results in a positive added value, which we observe in the case of mobility of individual participants, and which has an impact on improving the international environment of all institutions involved.Participants who completed mobility at partner institutions for the purpose of teaching gained valuable experience and knowledge, which will be further shared during their teaching activities at EU in Bratislava. We consider the concrete results of individual mobilities to be, for example, cooperation in the form of a long-term internship of a participant from the EU in Bratislava at L.N. Gumilyov Euroasian National University, several participants in the teaching mobility will work more closely with the partner institutions even after the end of the project, the cooperation will be focused on the scientific-research level. Within the partner country Bhutan, further cooperation will focus on research in the field of Gross National Happiness. On the basis of mobility at Tokyo International University, the participant gained knowledge about digital business, which will be further used in the teaching process at EU in Bratislava. All the above mentioned facts are a positive example of the results of the project and the increase in the quality of internationalization of all institutions involved.

University of Economics in Bratislava (hereinafter UEBA) achieved excellence results in the Erasmus+ program. Within the project 2014, 479 participants took part a mobility. UEBA achieved the best results within student mobility-study, then in sector student mobility-intership and teachers and staff mobilities. Generally we would like to highlight, that interest of program Erasmus+ at the UEBA increases. The interest of participants exceed the ability of UEBA provide them possibility take part a mobility because of the financial limits. The aim of the UEBA is to send each year as much as possible participants to the mobility.The feedback from the participants who came back from the mobility is very positive, the goals of the project 2014 we considered fulfilled.
