Erasmus+

The ERASMUS+ programme is the EU’s official student mobility programme, based on the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education 2021-2027 (ECHE) adopted by the participating institutions.

IMC Krems is an ERASMUS+ partner, enabling our students to access the world of opportunities that this network opens.

On the basis of bilateral agreements, the partner universities ‘swap’ students while guaranteeing that no tuition fees need be paid at the respective guest university. In fact: you can apply for an Erasmus+ grant to help finance your time abroad.

Courses completed abroad are accredited using the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS).

Studying abroad worldwide

Student exchange with non-EU partner universities is also done on the basis of bilateral agreements. It works along the same lines: our students don’t pay any additional tuition fees to our partner universities.

Our students in Krems also benefit from our exchange programmes: The increasing number of incoming students from our partner universities contributes to the invaluable international atmosphere of our university of applied sciences.

Dual degrees

Dual degrees: Your path to two degrees

Some of our degree programmes hold a close cooperation with some selected partner universities – that allows you to obtain a so-called “dual degree” during your studies!

A dual degree programme offers the opportunity to obtain two independent degrees for completing two different curricula. The dual degree agreement between the partner universities specifies the arrangements for accrediting equivalent courses for what are otherwise independent degree programmes. The collaboration makes it possible to study simultaneously for two degrees and complete them in less time than it would take to do each programme separately. Each university is responsible for awarding its own degree.

Are you intrigued?
