    What is BIP?

    A Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) is an innovative short-term mobility format within the Erasmus+ programme that combines virtual learning with a physical meeting at the host university.

    At the Catholic University in Ružomberok, international students and staff can take part in BIPs that bring together participants from different countries. The programme begins with online collaboration over several weeks and culminates in a short but intensive physical stay (usually 5–7 days), where participants engage in joint activities, projects, or teaching sessions. This flexible and accessible format offers a valuable opportunity for international cooperation, intercultural exchange, and professional development for both students and university staff.
