Os Blended Intensive Programmes (BIP) são programas de mobilidade internacional promovidos pelo Erasmus+, que combinam atividades de aprendizagem presenciais e virtuais. O objetivo destes programas é proporcionar uma experiência educativa inovadora e acessível, unindo estudantes e/ou professores de pelo menos três instituições de ensino superior de diferentes países.
A componente virtual consiste em atividades colaborativas online que podem ocorrer antes, durante ou após o período presencial, promovendo o trabalho conjunto entre os participantes à distância. Já a parte presencial corresponde a uma mobilidade física de curta duração, com um mínimo de cinco dias realizada, numa das instituições parceiras.
Os BIP incentivam a interdisciplinaridade, a inovação pedagógica e a internacionalização do currículo, ao mesmo tempo em que promovem o desenvolvimento de competências colaborativas, interculturais e linguísticas.
Os participantes podem candidatar-se a apoio financeiro do programa Erasmus+ para cobrir despesas relacionadas com a mobilidade.
