EuroTeQ Course Catalogue
Last Seats Available for the EuroTeQ Course Catalogue Spring Semester 2024/2025 – Apply by January 20th and gain an international learning experience without leaving home!
In January, students have the last opportunity to register for the upcoming spring semester courses offered by EuroTeQ partner universities and participate in online classes from Europe’s top universities. Registration for the remaining seats – and the chance to add an international university to your graduation diploma – closes on January 20th.
Upon completing a course, your EuroTeQ experience will be entered in the Diploma Supplement and may also be recognized in your curriculum if the criteria are met. TalTech students can take CTU, DTU, EPFL, L'X, TUM, Technion, and TU/e courses.
The subjects offered in the EuroTeQ course catalogue are all in English; however, language lessons from the partner countries are also available every semester.
The subjects in the course catalogue are either entirely online, hybrid or blended-form courses. For clarification:
- Online course – the course takes place for everyone via online distance learning.
- A hybrid course is one in which a EuroTeQ student participates online while home university students are physically present in the classroom.
- Blended—The course is mainly distance learning, but some studies (e.g., practical training and exams) take place on-site.
How it works
- Choose suitable courses from the EuroTeQ course catalogue. You can choose up to 3 courses from different universities. NB! Use the "Enrollment open" filter to see the available courses for the Last Seats Available call.
- Fill out the application for becoming a visiting student in OIS (Documents - Applications - Transfer to Visiting Student Place), indicating the courses you want to take from the host university. On the exchange programme line, add ‘EuroTeQ’. Should you wish to take courses from different universities, you must make separate applications based on the host university.
- After applying via OIS, the Programme Director must confirm it within the system and give their approval for your application.
- All applications approved by the Programme Director by the deadline indicated above will be included in the nomination to the host university. Shortly after the nomination, students will receive the next steps directly from the host university by e-mail.
- Once you have completed your courses, you must prepare an APEL application in OIS to have the courses entered in your study record. Credits are awarded for completed courses by TalTech’s terms and procedures for recognising previous studies and professional experience. Read more at taltech.ee/en/vota. VOTA is free of charge for the EuroTeQ courses.

Please see the EuroTeQ course catalogue for information on dates and deadlines, course schedules, and estimated study times for each course.
Please note that due to the different lecture times of the partner universities, it is not always possible to publish the schedules of all partner universities well in advance. Once all schedules are available, you will be informed by the respective host university as soon as possible so that you can coordinate your study plan.

After the course has started
We understand that sometimes it is impossible to continue with your chosen course for various reasons, such as scheduling conflicts, lack of time, or different expectations. If you need to withdraw from a course for any reason, please inform the home university, the host university, and the lecturer and also provide a reason for the withdrawal. This will allow us to manage any further developments more effectively.
Faculty offering hybrid courses often invest extra effort, time, and resources to make the experience as attractive as possible for EuroTeQ students since they attend from abroad. Please remember that withdrawing from a course on short notice has no consequences. However, it does affect the course flow for the rest of the group and the lecturer. Therefore, we are very grateful for as early a notification as possible.
