German-Russian university cooperation in a new dimension

The German-Russian Institute of Advanced Technologies GRIAT is a cooperation between the Kazan National Technical Research University (KNRTU-KAI) and a German consortium consisting of TU Ilmenau, OVGU Magdeburg and TU Kaiserslautern. The project aims to establish engineering degree programmes according to German standards at KNRTU-KAI. To this end, the consortium partners are exporting English-language Master's degree programmes to Kazan.

  • Lecturers from the German universities fly to Kazan once per semester and course of study to teach block seminars (flying faculty).

  • The students complete the third semester in Germany; in the fourth semester they write their Master's theses.

  • At the end of the four-semester course, students receive a double degree, i.e. a Russian and a German Master's certificate, which together constitute a degree.

The university, named after the Russian aircraft designer A.N. Tupolev, is one of the most renowned research universities in Russia.Kazan is the capital of the Autonomous Republic of Tatarstan.
