AIM OF THE EVENT
Our main goal to organize the 3rd Erasmus Staff Week is to create an opportunity for our partners
to introduce their universities, to learn about Turkey and Turkish culture, and to share experiences with
others while carrying out Erasmus Teaching or Training activity in the frame of Erasmus Staff Exchange
program. A five-day program was planned with this aim.
Any academic or administrative staff working at our partner universities or other European
universities willing to make new collaboration can apply for the 3rd Erasmus Staff Week which will take
place in Antakya, Hatay, Turkiye in 3-7 March 2014.
