The International Affairs Division embraces and constantly promotes international ties and partnerships via bi-national and multi-national consortiums, winning prestigious R&D grants (e.g. GIF, Synergy), European grants (e.g. FP6/7, Horizon2020, KA1, KA2) and more. As of today, HIT has more than 140 official academic partners from over 40 countries.
Since 2016, HIT has taken an active part in the European framework of the ERASMUS+ programme – be it International Credit Mobility (ICM) or Capacity Building (CBHE) – that promotes the internationalization of higher education and thus enables the development of higher education institutes, especially via academic collaboration.
