ARUST & INSA Double Degrees
Double Degree Agreement
The Double Degree Agreement, concluded between ARUST (Romanian Alliance of Universities of Science and Technology, of which TUIASI is a member) and INSA GROUP, the leading French group of engineering institutes, establishes a connection between the degree programmes of universities within ARUST and those of INSA GROUP.
The agreement, as a result of many years of collaboration, is the framework for cooperation which focuses on: the academic and administrative exchange, common research projects and scientific journals, workshops and seminars’ organization and other type of academic and scientific programmes.
The enrolled students in the double degree programme meet the opportunity to have two diplomas: a master’s degree diploma at TUIASI and a bachelor of engineering diploma (MA equivalent) in one of the French universities from INSA group.
