further exchange programs KIT

To promote study-related stays abroad, the KIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology maintains and coordinates many international cooperations. We maintain several structured exchange programs and many other important contacts to enable our students to study abroad. At the same time, we offer a variety of opportunities for international students who wish to obtain a degree or complete a guest study program with us.

Integrated exchange program between KIT and BME

The exchange takes place in the last semester of the Bachelor's program at KIT. At the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME), a Bachelor's thesis is written under local supervision and courses with a total number of 13 to 18 ECTS must be attended in parallel. The Bachelor's thesis is written in English. The final presentation takes place at KIT. Upon return, all achievements are automatically recognized and a Bachelor of Science is awarded by KIT.
