Eligibility criteria of KIU are one of the most challenging among the higher education institutions currently operating in Georgia and they are compatible with those of the Technical University of Munich (TUM).
According to the rating scores, computer science is the most popular program at KIU. One of the priorities of the university is to increase the engagement of women in exact science and nature studies.
KIU cooperates with a leading European higher education institution - Munich Technical University (TUM) - and its programs are designed according to the operating model of TUM. KIU conveys knowledge in the English language through Georgian and European professors and teachers.
