All staff mobility applications need to be done through our application portal Mobility-Online. The links to the online application form can be found under the relevant category "Staff Mobility for Teaching Assignments (STA)" or "Staff Mobility for Training (STT)".
UZH Staff will now use their SWITCH edu-ID to log in to Mobility-Online.
The complete application must be submitted at least 4 weeks before the start of the planned staff mobility.
Taking on a teaching assignment at a European partner university helps instructors improve their teaching skills and develop an international network. The Swiss-European Mobility Programme supports staff mobility for teaching appointments with an allowance for travel and living expenses.
Teaching staff can apply for a grant to cover part of their travel and living expenses in connection with a teaching assignment at a European partner institution. The program also covers Ph.D. students, who are employed at UZH. The teaching assignment must include at least 8 hours of instruction and last from a minimum of 2 consecutive days to a maximum of 10 days per semester.
The Swiss-European Mobility Programme enables university employees to pursue further training at a European partner university or a European company with the aim of promoting dialogue between Swiss and European institutions. Types of trainings include job-shadowing, short working periods, or attending workshops. Conferences are excluded.
The program awards UZH staff an allowance for travel and living expenses. A stay lasts between a minimum of two consecutive days and a maximum of five days.
Priority for funding will be given to activities with an administrative focus. For activities with an academic purpose, please refer to STA mobility.
As a result of budget cuts, there are currently very limited funds available.
Within the framework of the SEMP financial aid ("Grant for eco-friendly travel") is available to participants who choose to travel to and from their destination using a means of transport generating lower CO2 emissions than the plane, such as bus or train. Your travel expenses will be refunded with a more advantageous flat rate if you are able to submit proof of environmentally friendly travel at the end of your stay. In justified cases, additional travel days can further be subsidized (up to 2 days per travel direction).
It is the responsibility of the participant to enquire about the existing measures for sustainable travel at their faculty or unit and to orientate themselves accordingly.
Instructors and staff with special needs can apply for additional subsidies to cover extra costs incurred during their mobility stay due to their disability. If you would like to make use of this offer, please contact Alice Ragueneau or the Disability Office.
