SMILE at a glance

The SMILE programme is a real gem :)

It allows student mobilities with Universities settled in Latin America and cooperating within the Magalhães framework.

SMILE will allow you to come to AGH University for one semester. During your stay you will take part in lectures/seminars/labs/field classes offered by AGH University in English. You will get the chance to live a student's life in Krakow, meet new people, gain new perspectives and... you will ask for an extension of stay :)

What does it involve?

SMILE is an opportunity for:
- short-term scholarships for studies,
- short-term scholarships for internship/training.

SMILE for studies is open for students.

ATTENTION! This registration is only for first and second-cycle students.
