附二：同济大学欧盟伊拉斯姆GATE奖学金项目背景资料

GATE project description
knowledGe mAnagement Technology transfer and Education programme
GATE is an Erasmus Mundus mobility project funded by the European Commission (2012 - 2016). It will provide 103 scholarships to students at all levels (Bachelor, Master, PhD, post-doc researchers and staff) from Cambodia, China, Indonesia, India, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia,Thailand and Vietnam to the European consortium partners.
· Partner universities.
The GATE project's operational objectives are as follows:
· The project supports the advancement of third-country institutions' international co-operation capacity through a transfer and export of EU universities’ experience in the implementation of the Erasmus programme and by applying the Erasmus exchange principles (such as the Learning Agreement) to the mobility activities between the partner institutions.
· The programme promotes co-operation between sending and hosting institutions, thus mutually enriching the educational environment of both the hosting and sending institutions in the EU and in the respective partner countries through a joint approach in selecting candidates and through a considerable number of mobility exchanges.
· The consortium will also provide new cooperation opportunities for EU and Asian universities and contribute to developing new links between academic institutions in the EU and Asia.
· The project will enable students and staff to benefit linguistically, culturally and educationally from the experience of pursuing studies or carrying out research in another country.
· The programme improves the transparency of studies, credit transfer and recognition, and qualifications by working according to the guidelines of what has become common practice in regard to student exchange under the Erasmus programme.
· The programme contributes to providing good students from vulnerable groups with further education and professional development — thus contributing to disseminate EU social and democratic values. The same applies to gender equity.
· The programme will enhance the skills and qualifications of international higher education staff through the mobility.
In more concrete terms, the project objectives for the mobility programme flow from the Asian partner universities to the EU are as follows:
Increasing the number and quality of these exchanges and enhancement through sustainable scientific and cultural cooperation and mutual transfer of experience and knowledge with the partner countries.
One of the expected project results will be to enhance as well as encourage and enable highly qualified graduates and scholars from the partner countries to obtain qualifications in the European Union while contributing to the academic excellence and visibility of their respective home universities.
The project has been designed so that the exchange programmes will benefit all partners and limit "brain drain".

2. Full degree
The following applicants are eligible to apply for a full degree:
Target Group 1: Master and Doctorate level students
Target Group 2: Master and Doctorate level students
Target Group 3: Master level students

If you apply for a full degree you will obtain a degree diploma at Masters' or PhD level from the European host university (after fulfilling all necessary requirements). Students applying for degree programmes must meet the local admission requirements and must adhere to the application procedure at the institution to which they apply.
Levels of mobility
1. Bachelor level
Bachelor level students must have completed at least 1 year of undergraduate university studies.

2. Master level
Applicants are eligible to apply if they have finished their Bachelor studies.

3. PhD

In order to be eligible, academic and administrative staff must work in or be associated to one of the Asian universities participating in the partnership.

Staff members applying for the scholarships should demonstrate how their stay abroad shall influence the improvement of higher education in their country, also how the activities abroad expectedly change the academic (such as teaching methods, curriculum development, learning material development, planned development of joint research or teaching with EU partner, recognition of studies in EU HEI) or administrative activity (in terms of higher education management, student and staff mobility management, recognition of studies abroad/credit transfer issues) in their home institution.
