            Programmes of study implemented in cooperation with universities abroad differ from tradit

            programmes in several respects. Due to the nature of the arrangement, these studies are no
            only at Charles University, and all students will therefore visit at least one partner uni
            their studies (in the case of a bilaterally structured programme). Of course, there may be

            partner university (commonly even 10), which for this purpose are grouped into consortia, 
            of educational institutions that organize the implementation of the programme. The princip

            programme.


            Depending on the number of partner universities and the degree level (from bachelor’s to P
            details of the programmes, including the parameters for foreign mobility, can change signi
            programmes, it is determined in advance at which university the student starts studying an

            of grades, study plans) and purely organizational formalities, which include, for example,
            the diploma and how it is conferred. The diploma is usually a joint effort or the universi

            standard diplomas stating that they award them within the jointly implemented study progra

            Due to the financial demands of mobility not only for students but also academic staff, th
