About the educational process
What is the main study language at the Program?
Most of the training is in Ukrainian, but in the second year some courses are taught in English. In order for students to have a sufficient understanding of the subjects taught in English, undergraduate programs require mandatory language pairs. Also, upon completion of the first year, students with a B2 level are required to complete English Summer School – 3 intensive weeks of English with native speakers. (The ESS is within the curriculum and is free of charge.) After the first year of study, students have a minimum of B2.

Also, for the 2-4 year students, the UCU Faculty of Applied Sciences created an opportunity to receive an additional scholarship “Teacher Assistant Discount” and “Researcher Assistant Discount”. More details can be found here.
Do I need a laptop for lessons?
Yes, the laptop is required to attend lessons.
Is it possible to take individual courses?
Yes, you can apply for individual courses. More information on the
Individual Studies course page
Do you help with finding internship / job search after graduation?
UCU’s Faculty of Applied Sciences has many partners –
SoftServe, Eleks, EPAM, GlobalLogic, N-iX, Grammarly, Perfectial, KindGeek, ring, CoreValue, CharStudio, Ciklum, Sigma Software, Romexsoft, Ricker Lyman and many others. Often, our partners not only organize specific courses for students, but are also interested in student internship opportunities. Thus,
100% of the 3rd year students have been trained at least in one IT company. Of course, we help our students find opportunities, but they decide how to use them independently.
