Student life

International students

I only applied to ITU, and I said if this doesn't work this year I'm going to apply next year, and if that doesn't work I'm going to apply the year after

The study environment invites you to play games - it isn't weird to see small groups of students doing a game during their class, taught by the teacher.

Ask a student

What is it like studying at the IT University? Is there a significant amount of reading? How is the teaching carried out, and is there room for a part-time job? Are the social gatherings fun?

When considering your course of study, you may have numerous questions of this nature. Therefore, we have launched "Ask a Student," giving you the opportunity to contact a current international student at ITU.
