The University of Udine's Operational Plan for Internationalization related to the Strategic Plan for the three-year period 2023-2025 has integrated and used the Erasmus project as a starting point. The goal is to increase the international dimension of research and teaching. This choice reflects the University's aim to increase its internationalization in terms of visibility and mobility numbers, to project students into a global dimension, and to innovate the culture, management and outlook of the University. To make this vision a reality, the University has undertaken a series of targeted actions. Among these, stands out the University's participation in the European Universities ‘Across’ project. Although it's only been active since January 2025, the years spent preparing for the project and consolidating relationships with partners have enabled the University to reflect on several aspects. These include the current situation, future objectives, potential improvements, and new processes to be activated or consolidated, such as COIL, Atomic Learning Units, Micro-credential, Digital Integrated Didactics. Furthermore, they have allowed the University to feel centrally involved in European action, thanks also to its geographical position halfway between the eastern and western countries of the alliance. The European University Alliance Project innovative thrust has further enhanced the University of Udine's promotion of its educational programmes. The University has continued to encourage mobility within the entire university community, recognizing it as a key tool for building and consolidating global cooperation networks, increasing the international awareness of those involved and enabling them to face the challenges posed by a global setting. Mobility experiences have not only encouraged the formation of academic and research links and the training of young people ready to face a globalised future, but also the acquisition of administrative, planning and organisational skills and good practices to be integrated into university governance. In some cases, the University has co-financed these initiatives to ensure full mobility implementation when Erasmus funds were insufficient. The consolidation of digital tools, such as Erasmus without Papers, has made the management of bilateral agreements more efficient. It has helped to expand the range of international courses on offer, activating numerous modules and degree courses taught entirely in English. This has helped to make the University of Udine a more attractive destination for students from abroad and, at the same time, has broadened the study and training opportunities for those who choose to study abroad in countries such as Germany, Austria, France and Spain. This structural innovation has also enabled the University to work with its partners towards the common goal of resolving any issues and implementing joint “learning by doing” processes. In line with its strategic planning and the Erasmus programme, the University has continued to promote new forms of international teaching through mobility programmes aimed at internships, thesis, intensive programmes, study trips and double degree programmes. The University has paid and continues to pay particular attention to removing structural and administrative barriers that hinder student participation, with the aim of increasing the overall number of physical and virtual mobility programmes. From this point of view, great attention is paid to the recognition of international mobility credits within the area of credits freely chosen by students: this ensures full recognition of short-term mobility for BIP and study trips, an internal University programme, and “short mobilities” in general. In this context, the University intends to continue supporting departmental initiatives. These initiatives focus on virtual or short-term forms of collaboration and mobility, developed in partnership with local organisations. They aim to promote interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches, capable of enriching students' education with transversal skills and soft skills that are increasingly in demand at European level.
