Summary/Abstract: The developing process of globalization causes increasing migration of people which in turn leads to greater cultural diversity of societies. The most mobile generations include those named Y and Z, that is, people born in the 1980s and 1990s. Representatives of the latter, undertaking studies in other countries within the framework of the Erasmus program, are the subject of research conducted in the paper. Due to the fact that cultural intelligence is a dynamic category and can be developed, it was considered worth examining whether the Erasmus program has an impact on the level of students’ CQ.
