About The Project

UniEra is a web application built in collaboration with the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB), designed to make life easier for students participating in the Erasmus exchange program. The platform lets students browse partner universities, match courses taken abroad with courses from their home department, manage their applications and Learning Agreements, and take part in a forum where they can ask questions and share experiences with other students.

The idea came from the need for a single, centralized place for Erasmus-bound students, instead of having to search for course equivalencies and official documents scattered across different sources.
