STUDENT MOBILITY PROGRAMS (Vice-Rectorate of International Relations)

All information is available at: http://internacional.umh.es/movilidad/estudiantes/

These programs allow you to study a semester or a full academic year at another university without transferring your academic record. There are three types of mobility:

A) NATIONAL Mobility: SICUE Program
B) INTERNATIONAL Mobility: ERASMUS+ Program (Studies or Internships)
C) DESTINO Program

For Destino Scholarships, a list of agreements between UMH and Iberoamerican or other international universities is provided. Students can check if an equivalent degree is offered to select universities when applying for the scholarship.

BUDDY PROGRAM

Developed by the International Relations Service, the Buddy Program helps exchange students integrate socially and academically at Miguel Hernández University.
UMH students mentor exchange students coming to UMH during the next academic year, helping them adapt to university life. In return, UMH students gain exposure to other cultures, languages, and international connections.

Objectives:

1. Integrate exchange students into the university.
   
2. Help exchange students adapt to academic and social life in Spain.
   
3. Practice a foreign language for both students.
   
4. Learn about new people, languages, customs, and culture. 

Responsibilities of UMH students participating:

1. Assist the exchange student as much as possible.
   
2. Welcome the international student and guide them around campus.
   
3. Help find accommodation (NIDO program).
   
4. Introduce them to the local student life and city environment.
   
5. Introduce them to Spanish culture and society until fully integrated. 

Participation in this mentorship program provides advantages for applying to the ERASMUS+ international mobility program.
