The Blended Intensive Program (BIP) is a short-term mobility initiative introduced by the Erasmus+ program to make international mobility more accessible, especially for those with fewer opportunities. BIP combines both physical and virtual mobility and is developed collaboratively by multiple higher education institutions on diverse topics and themes. It fosters the creation of transnational and transdisciplinary study programs, offering innovative teaching and learning methods while encouraging online collaboration to address societal challenges.
