Double degree program between the universities of Ulm and Kharkiv
The double degree program between two universities involves students studying partly at one university and partly at the other, and receiving degrees from both universities. In this case, the partner universities agree in a separate agreement on how the subjects studied at one university are credited by the partner university.
The goal of the double degree program between V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University (KNU), Ukraine, and the University of Ulm, Germany, is to further develop cooperation between Ukrainian and German universities, expand Ukraine's integration into the European educational space, and currently assist Ukrainian students and teachers during the war and in the post-war reconstruction period.
Bachelor program
Since 2023, a dual bachelor's degree program has been operating between the Faculty of Mathematics and Economics at the University of Ulm and the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at Kharkiv National University. Students of three specialties of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science (fundamental mathematics, applied mathematics, computer science) can participate in the program. Classes are conducted in German for Ukrainian students studying in Ulm and in English for German students studying in Kharkiv.
Upon completion of their studies, they receive a German bachelor's degree in mathematics and a Ukrainian degree in their original field of specialization.
Master program
Starting in 2025, a dual master's degree program will begin between the Faculty of Mathematics and Economics at the University of Ulm and the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at Kharkiv National University. Students enrolled in the master's program in Data Science are eligible to participate in the program. The program is taught in English.
Upon completion of their studies, they receive a master's degree in Data Science and two diplomas: German and Ukrainian.
