ERASMUS Program is a European Union action program through which students, teachers and university staff can acquire academic and personal experience in other European countries, broadening their cultural horizons, improving their foreign-language skills and achieving fresh perspectives in their subject areas. The exchange of students, teachers and staff between European universities is based on bilateral agreements between the various departments at Trakia University and those of the partner institutions.

In 2000/2001 academic year Trakia University successfully started the cooperation in the ERASMUS program. Within the framework of the first institutional contract student exchange and implementation of an European system of credit transfer are under way. These activities conform fully to the stated European policy of Trakia University and its Program of strategic development. The participation in the ERASMUS program makes it possible for the University to enrich its international experience. Students are able to acquire experience when they encounter another type of culture in European universities.

In 2007 Trakia University applied for and received the EXTENDED ERASMUS UNIVERSITY CHARTER by the European Commission. It gives the University access to the program for the period 2007 – 2013 academic years.
