In Romania, ESN is present in 12 cities, collaborating with more than 40 universities, with approximately 400 volunteers providing help to over 3500 international students who come to Romania each year.

But who are we?

A group of young people who voluntarily put their effort in helping international students integrate and provide opportunities for cultural understanding and self-development for students of Romania and not only. Volunteers across the country, no matter their sections work together to add value to the Erasmus+ students’/trainees’ experiences and also get to develop their hard and soft skills, reaching ESN’s mission of “Enrichment of society through international students”.

Our story

The first local section of Erasmus Student Network in Romania was born in 2004, when ESN Cluj-Napoca was accepted within the network and since then more and more people started to believe in the mission and vision of Erasmus Student Network and joined it. Today ESN Romania has 14 local sections in 12 cities: http://alba-iulia.esn.ro/">ESN Alba-Iulia, www.ase-bucharest.esn.ro/">http://www.ase-bucharest.esn.ro/">ESN ASE-CMP Bucharest, www.brasov.esn.ro/">http://www.brasov.esn.ro/">ESN Brașov, www.cluj-napoca.esn.ro/">http://www.cluj-napoca.esn.ro/">ESN Cluj-Napocawww.constanta.esn.ro/">http://www.constanta.esn.ro/">, ESN Constanța, www.craiova.esn.ro/">http://www.craiova.esn.ro/">ESN Craiova, www.iasi.esn.ro/">http://www.iasi.esn.ro/">ESN Iași, www.facebook.com/esn.pitesti">https://www.facebook.com/esn.pitesti">ESN Pitești, www.poli-bucharest.esn.ro/">https://www.poli-bucharest.esn.ro/">ESN Poli, www.sibiu.esn.ro/">http://www.sibiu.esn.ro/">ESN Sibiu, https://suceava.esn.ro/">ESN Suceava, www.targu-mures.esn.ro/">http://www.targu-mures.esn.ro/">ESN Târgu Mureș, http://timisoara.esn.ro/">ESN Timișoara și http://unibucharest.esn.ro/">ESN UniBucharest.
