Military Academy Erasmus Policy Statement (see here)
The Military Academy will focus on activities that can contribute for a solid education of students in scientific fields and subjects are compatible to those existing in the Military Academy. More relevance will be given to mobility activities that can develop and increase reciprocity, cooperation and interaction of students attending Masters and teachers.
The geographical area chosen by the Military Academy for mobility activities includes not only the Higher Education Institutes from participating countries, but also the Portuguese speaking countries.
Among the most important objectives for the mobility activities are cooperation, the enlargement of partnerships with institutions that focus upon our core areas of study of the Military Academy, and also the exchange of teachers for participating in workshops and training in order to transmit the acquired knowledge to their students and their peers.
Amongst the Military Academy priorities to be reached within the Erasmus program are:
The Military Academy has been developing initiatives to integrate Higher Education Institutes scientific and academic nets and also cooperate in terms of partnerships with those institutions as well as other foreign scientific institutions, namely in terms of the European Union.
These partnerships and cooperation envisage the development and increase of scientific research and innovation, the transference of scientific and technological knowledge, the improvement of working skills, and a better understanding of European and Portuguese speaking countries and institutions.
European Initiative for Exchange of Military Young Officers (EMILYO)
The European initiative for exchange of military young officers (EMILYO), also known as Military Erasmus, aims to enable European Union initial military education and training institutions, to explore possibilities for quantitative and qualitative exchanges of knowledge and know-how through mobility of their students and personnel.

Background
One way to foster this ability is to integrate the education and training of the servicemen and their officers. The European military officers’ educational institutes, and the Member States at a more diplomatic level, have had a long experience and tradition of exchanges, to this end.
The experience of mobility they acquired nevertheless revealed that, due to the particular nature of the education and training they provide, the military institutes could not make full use of all the possibilities offered by the mobility instruments available which were primarily designed for civilian higher education, such as the Erasmus programme. A need was identified, therefore, for addressing together these structural obstacles at the European level.
In the second half of 2008, the French EU Presidency then in office launched a programme of reflection on ways to allow greater integration of the initial academic and professional training of young European officers through mobility. The initiative for the exchange of young officers, inspired by Erasmus, was launched in November 2008 with the declaration by the European Ministers of Defence, meeting within the Council of the European Union, on the European Security and Defence Policy.
