The Erasmus Al Sud Consortium emerged in 2012 as an initiative of 5 higher education institutions to send and receive mobility students for internships, and set up partnerships with the national businesses.

Testimonial
Lauro Pinto, Master’s degree student in Human Resources Management – University of Évora
Two years ago, I was about to finish my master’s degree in Human Resources Management at the University of Évora.
With a shortage of job offers at the time, and the growing need to develop my personal and intellectual skills, the idea of an internship abroad seemed like the right challenge at the right time. Having chosen the country (Austria) and registered for the scholarship application, it was only a matter of time for the process to be successful. The Al Sud Consortium scholarship was on its way!
