Universiteti i Prishtinës me qëllim avancimi të arsimimit, karshi trendeve evropiane, është përcaktuar për një

rrugë të integrimeve evropiane dhe të bashkëpunimit ndërkombëtar.

Duke i mbështetur principet e Bolonjës për njohje dhe implementim e kredive ECTS, zhvillimit të politikave dhe sistemit të sigurimit të cilësisë në edukimin e lartë, zhvillimit të strategjisë universitare për edukim të vazhdueshëm, UP-ja merr pjesë në projekte evropiane për zhvillim dhe harmonizim të kurrikulave, mobilitet të studentëve dhe të stafit akademik, si dhe bashkëpunime bilaterale në fusha të ndryshme.

Meqë bashkëpunimi ndërkombëtar në fushën e arsimit të lartë është shumë i rëndësishëm për Universitetin e Prishtinës, Zyra për Marrëdhënie me Jashtë e UP-së, me angazhimin maksimal të stafit, ka mundësuar gjenerimin e programeve të Komisionit Evropian, duke u bërë kështu fitues dhe pjesëmarrës aktiv në 3 programe Erasmus Mundus Action 2., gjë që e bën Universitetin e Prishtinës konkurrent serioz me universitetet e rajonit. Këto programe do të kontribuojnë në ngritjen e cilësisë së edukimit, të nxënit dhe hulumtimit në nivel të lartë ndërkombëtar.

Programet në të cilat Universiteti i Prishtinës është pjesëmarrës në kuadër të kornizës Erasmus Mundus Action 2. janë programi Basileus, i cili koordinohet nga Universiteti Ghent i Belgjikës; programi JoinEU-SEE, i cili koordinohet nga Universiteti Graz i Austrisë, si dhe programi SIGMA, i cili koordinohet nga Universiteti i Varshavës, Poloni.

Këto programe do të ofrojnë bursa për studime jashtë vendit në të gjitha nivelet e studimit (bachelor, master, doktoratë, post-doktoratë dhe mobilitete për staf akademik). Mundësi aplikimi do të kenë studentët dhe stafi akademik i Universitetit të Prishtinës, të cilëve do t’u mundësohen studimet dhe kërkimet shkencore në universitetet prestigjioze evropiane, siç janë: Universiteti Graz, Universiteti i Varshavës, Universiteti Ghent, Universiteti i Berlinit, Universiteti i Milanos, Universiteti i Bolonjës, i Mariborit, Universiteti i Londrës, Universiteti i Salzburgut, Montpellier, Universiteti Granada etj.

Bursat do t’i mbulojnë të gjitha shpenzimet e regjistrimit, studimit dhe akomodimit për bursistët dhe shuma e tyre do të dallojë varësisht nga niveli i studimit. P.sh. për nivelin bachelor dhe master shuma mujore e bursës do të jetë 1000 € në muaj, për studime të doktoratës do të jetë 1500 €, për post-doktoratë do të jetë 1800 € në muaj, ndërsa për mobilitet të stafit akademik do të jetë 2500 €.

erasmus munDus ation 2, stranD 1The EMA2 programme is a co-operation and mobility scheme in the area of higher educa-tion. The European Commis-sion has launched this initiative

to foster cooperation between higher education institutions from outside the EU with EU universities. It aims to boost exchanges of students, researchers and academic staff and to support mobility, in particular from non-EU countries to EU member states. There are different lots for different re-gions in the world and for each of them consortia have been formed. Students, researchers and staff from the area can apply to the selected consortium for scholarships.

the basileus projeCt The objective of the Basileus project is to promote mobility for students and staff between the Western Balkan coun-tries and the EU; to enhance the understanding and the international cooperation between higher education insti-tutions in both regions; to pave the way to international recognition of studies and qualifications and to enhance the role of the higher education sector by exchanging knowledge, skills and expertise. The Basileus project strives to build structured long-term cooperation between all part-ners, resulting in a sustainable network. It offers the oppor-tunity to boost the ex-change of know-how for curriculum development, university-enterprise co-operation, international relations and university management.
