After providing a perspective of global tertiary student migration, we explain the organisation of the student mobility at the higher education (HE) level in the European Union (EU) with the Erasmus, Tempus and Erasmus Mundus programmes and their associated tools, ECTS, Tuning, networking (particularly that in physics), etc. The mobility at Ghent University is given as an example for more detailed implementation. The mobility strategy up to 2020 for the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) is then given. Finally, the mobility in Japan is treated in general and in particular using the implementation example of Hokkaido University.
