L’esperienza ERASMUS: la valutazione degli studenti dell'Università di Bergamo

The experience of credit mobility is a growing phenomenon among university students; indeed, so far, more than 3 million European students participated to the ERASMUS program. Recently, also the University of Bergamo aligned to the European guidelines, including the internationalization as one of the main aims for its future development. In order to investigate this issue, we conducted an online survey addressed to students of our university with credit mobility experiences. Therefore we prepared a questionnaire divided in the following three main sections: i) Why to spend a period abroad ; ii) During the period abroad ; iii) Coming back to Bergamo. Our survey involves around 1300 students who had an experience abroad during the a.y. from 2008/09 to 2013/14. The aim of this paper is to analyze how students evaluate the experience abroad. We present the results through a mapping of the variables.
