Abstract:

Graduates can influence their future labour market placement even during their studies. One option is to use Erasmus+ mobility at each degree of their studies. Students can take part in this mobility programme as a bachelor, engineering or postgraduate student.

This article focuses on pointing to the practical benefit of possibility to travel abroad through the Erasmus+ program currently available to students. One of these benefits is the gain of new and necessary data that can serve as a basis for preparation and processing the final thesis on the "home" university. This benefit can be categorized according to the degree of study, which is also the form of the selected mobility.

As a basis for the elaboration of this article, we used an example of a combination of multiple Erasmus+ mobilities used in the processing of diploma and dissertation thesis that focus on the organization's safety culture. The advantage of Erasmus+ mobility is the acquisition of new theoretical approaches to this issue and the infiltration into organizations where the student can conduct research on respective issue. During mobility, a large number of contacts can be established, which can be used in the processing of the final thesis as well as in other personal and professional growth.

During creation of this article, methods of description, explanation, analysis, synthesis and comparison were used in the examination of the current state, possibilities of mobility as well as the description of their active use and its benefits. The outcomes of the article can be used by students in order to increase the level of their final thesis and make it more attractive. Pointing to the real added value of Erasmus+ mobility in creating of final thesis also serves as feedback, including new suggestions for improvement, and further advice and recommendations for students interested in this type of mobility.
