Students interested in undertaking a period of study at our school should be enrolled in an Institution with whom Escola Massana has signed a bilateral agreement (IIA). The agreements specify the number of students, the length of the exchange and the departments involved
in the project.

Escola Massana has agreements with other Higher Education Institutions in Erasmus+ Programme and under its Erasmus code E BARCELO59. Escola Massana also has agreements with other international institutions not belonging to the European Programmes; processes and regulations for these mobilities are the same as the ones for the Erasmus+.

Depending on Inter-Institutional Agreement (IIA) signed between Escola Massana and students’ home Institutions, applicants who wish to do exchange mobility at Escola Massana should be aware and have the necessary information about the different Higher Education study plans: Degree in Arts and Design (EQF level  6), and Short Cycles (EQF Level 5). Please check in Partner School list which is the study plan approved by the Institutions, and choose as indicated in application form.

If your home School is in the E BARCELO02 list of Partners Schools, you must contact us, so your mobility must be approved by Escola Massana, but it must be registered in Autonomous University files too.
