A three-person delegation from the National Technical University of Kharkiv visited Zittau and Dresden from October 13 to 17 to explore opportunities for further cooperation with IHI Zittau. The focus was on a cooperation meeting to establish a joint double degree. Afterwards, both sides were very optimistic that the first students from Kharkiv will be able to spend a semester in Zittau as part of a double degree from the 2026 academic year. An ERASMUS student from Kharkiv is currently already in Zittau.
