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.
