INTERPARSE EU-Canada Project
The new EU-Canada Cooperation Programme in Higher Education, Training and Youth (2006-2013). Programme aims primarily at promoting understanding between the peoples of the European Union and Canada and improving the quality of their human resource development. The Programme is administered jointly by the European Commission’s Directorate General for Education and Culture (DG EAC) and by Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC), in conjunction with the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade.
In 2007, within the framework of the EU-Canada Cooperation Programme in Higher Education, Training and Youth, the European Commission announced a new call for proposals to develop Transatlantic Exchange Partnerships (TEP) between the European Union and Canada. Finally, 11 projects have been selected and awarded the EC grant, among them the INTERPARSE consortium project.
You can learn more about other projects selected for implementation in the call of 2007, the transatlantic cooperation EU-Canada itself and other calls under this cooperation at the website of European Commission.

Project Summary: |
This project will provide international trade education by incorporating import/export projects into the business curriculum. Local firms will participate and students in Canada and Europe will work together to import and export goods and services. Sixty students will move between Canada and Europe, but several hundred more will have rich international experiences as mixed teams of Canadian and European students on both sides of the Atlantic work together on actual trade projects using the full range of modern technologies and techniques. |
Types of student exchanges: |
each partner institution will send 10 students on transatlantic exchanges. Six of these students will go on 4-month exchanges and 4 will go on 3-week exchanges. |
EU funding: |
€ 138000 - the grant awarded to cover the costs incurred by the European part of the consortium. The part of the grant awarded to cover the costs of individual mobility flows of students and faculty members is calculated on the basis of unit-costs detailed below:
- scholarship corresponding at EUR 1000 per month for students
- contribution towards travel costs up to EUR 1000 per student/faculty member receiving a scholarship.

Further information on the project details and the student mobility scheme is available at the students’ mother institutions. |
