Students interested in the international semester should have an ICT Business/engineering background or at least an interest in the field.
Students who join the Industrial Management semester must have completed the first two years of core requirement studies in their home institutions. These first two study years should have included mathematics, physics and data processing.
The International semesters are offered as packages, so students should choose all the courses in one of the semester packages.

Since the international semesters include a lot of writing in English, the participating students should have a B2 level of proficiency in English in European standards. Here you can find the description of the B2 level:

We do not require an official English test from the students from our partner universities
