Abstract: Erasmus is a mobility program with a 31 year long tradition, intended for the tertiary education. It has supported over three million students and 300000 academics in Europe. In this study, we analysed the mobility of academics from the field of business and administrative sciences between 2008 and 2013. We applied a social network approach focusing on the institutional level and the country level. Based on social network analyses, we first visualized the exchange patterns between sampled institutions and countries. The results of our network analyses reveal that the Finland higher education institution Haaga-Helia, had the most academic mobility exchanges. In the core of a network, that was built at the country level, are the Great Britain, Germany, France, Poland, Spain, Finland, Lithuania and Austria. During the period under study, the mobility of academics was increasing.
