General Information
POLITEHNICA Bucharest has partnered with leading European universities to offer Double Degree and Joint Degree Programs. These initiatives enable students to develop globally transferable skills while broadening their perspectives through immersion in a different culture.
Upon completion, students receive diplomas from both Politehnica Bucharest and the partner institution.
What is a Double Degree Program?
A Double Degree Program allows students to spend part of their Bachelor's or Master's studies at a partner university, depending on the specific agreement. This mobility typically lasts for two years, and upon completion, students earn diplomas from both institutions.
Some Double Degree Programs are available exclusively at the Master's level.
During the mobility period, students are exempt from paying tuition fees and can apply for an ERASMUS scholarship to help fund their stay.
A Double Degree Program involves two universities:
Home University
Partner/Host University
Mobility Path
Generally, international students (incoming students) participate in a two-semester mobility during their final year of studies, which corresponds to the second year of the Master's program at POLITEHNICA Bucharest.
Students must select all courses from the respective study year of mobility, except courses belonging to the Educational Sciences and Pedagogical Studies fields.
Application Period
1st of March - 30th of July
Eligibility
Incoming students are eligible if they have completed 60 ECTS credits corresponding to the first year of Master's studies (for example, the second year of Engineering in France).
Students must provide a language certificate of English, demonstrating proficiency at the B2 level of the CEFR.
Students must have successfully passed all exams before the mobility period.
Financial Support
Students can apply for an ERASMUS+ scholarship to finance their mobility.
Tuition fees (if applicable) are paid only at the home institution.
Other fees that may arise during mobility at the host institution will be covered by the student.
