• This is the office responsible for managing mobility, recruitment, and cooperation programmes. It also processes, records, and monitors the cooperative agreements formed in the academic environment. The office provides advising and institutional support to the students during their various mobility phases. It is also responsible for the reception, accreditation, and adaptation of exchange students coming from other universities.
• The Mobility Office (MO) for the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) is an administrative service that reports directly to the Office of the Vice Rector for Degrees and Internationalisation. Its objective is to respond to the needs of the students, instructors, and other personnel involved in national and international mobility and exchange programmes. In this way, exchange students at the USC can receive advising and institutional support from the Mobility Office during the various phases of their process. This office is also responsible for reception, accreditation, and adaptation of exchange students arriving from partner universities. The team working in the Mobility Office is a dynamic and enthusiastic group of employees, who work from their two offices (one in Santiago de Compostela and the other at the Lugo Campus) to achieve continual improvement of the services being offered to the students: information, assistance, follow up, and comprehensive advising, to ensure that they will receive specific, personalised attention with regard to their mobility and exchange programmes. The national mobility programme offers more than 1,300 spaces for exchanges with almost every university in Spain.
• There are numerous mobility programmes that involve exchanges with universities other than the USC, while others bring Spanish and international students to study at the USC. These include, among others, the SICUE programme for mobility in Spain, the Erasmus+ programme for European countries, and the Bilateral Agreements programme, which is focused on collaborations with universities in countries outside of the European Higher Education Area.
