Mission
Integrating students and faculty into the global scientific and educational space, ensuring a qualitative leap in training IT professionals through the exchange of international experience and cultural dialogue.
Department of International Cooperation
The Department is a key link in integrating the university into the global educational and scientific community. Its work is aimed at strengthening IITU's reputation internationally and creating opportunities for study and internships abroad.
Academic Mobility and Double Degree Program
The academic mobility program gives students a unique chance to study for one semester or an academic year at leading partner universities abroad while keeping their IITU student status.
Participation is funded through the Erasmus+ fund, grants from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan, or scholarships from the host university.
Double Degree Program
The Double Degree program is a unique educational pathway that allows an IITU student to study at a partner university abroad in parallel and, upon graduation, receive two full diplomas: the national IITU diploma and the diploma of the foreign university.
How does it work? Studies usually follow a "3+1" or "2+2" model: the student spends the first 2 or 3 years at IITU and the final year (or two) at the foreign university. Courses completed abroad are credited at IITU, and IITU courses are credited at the partner university.
