Triple I - Integration, Interaction and Institutions

The Triple I - Integration, Interaction and Institutions is a consortium of nine European and ten Russian universities. The Consortium is coordinated by the University of Turku. Triple I mobility scheme awards grants to students and staff of Russian and European Partner Universities, but also to Russian nationals not linked with the Partner Universities. Triple I is funded within the Action 2 – Strand 1 – Erasmus Mundus Partnerships. Triple I is a co-operation and mobility scheme launched by Europe Aid cooperation Office and implemented by the Executive Agency Education, Audiovisual and Culture.

The objective of the Triple I (Integration, Interaction and Institutions) Project is to create an active network of Russian and European universities who cooperate multidisciplinarily and multilaterally and promote innovation through joint research, education, and exchange of experience and good practises. In particular, the Triple I mobility scheme forms new connections and links between partner universities and increases their capacity for international and interdisciplinary cooperation. Triple I also contributes to better recognition of studies through ECTS system.
