AUIP Programa Magallanes de Movilidad Académica Internacional 2027 (International Academic Mobility between all AUIP-associated institutions)
AUIP's flagship mobility programme funds 120 international academic stays a year between its member universities across Latin America, Spain and Portugal. It pays your international airfare (up to €1,300) for research stays, internships, curriculum work or joint projects of 20 days to 3 months — open to postgraduate students, professors, researchers and postgraduate-programme managers.
Why it is notable: the grant is guaranteed by a three-year action plan (2027–2029) with two application windows per year; one applicant per person, and both universities must be active AUIP members — a built-in network most applicants never notice.
Funding at a glance
What it covers
International airfare purchased by AUIP through its travel agent, up to €1,300 for travel between two Ibero-American countries (no cash alternative; buying the ticket yourself cancels the grant).
Up to €700 for travel between Spain and Portugal (reimbursed by bank transfer against receipts; only cash if travelling by private vehicle).
(Explicitly not covered: accommodation, living expenses, medical insurance — the fellow must take out and pay for a medical/pharmaceutical + repatriation policy — visa costs, and any ticket-change fees.)
