NTU 'KhPI' and OVGU Strengthen Dual-Degree Program for Ukrainian Students in 2026
A joint educational project between NTU 'KhPI' and Otto von Guericke University (OVGU) has reached a new milestone. The updated DSG2neo dual-degree program agreement was signed in Magdeburg on April 13, 2026. This initiative, launched in 2022, supports Ukrainian students—particularly refugees—seeking higher education in Germany. The DSG2neo program began in June 2022 as part of a broader effort to assist Ukrainian applicants in Germany. Funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), it offers scholarships based on academic merit and motivation. Students can enrol at OVGU after completing their first year at NTU 'KhPI'.
The updated agreement, signed at a ceremonial event, outlines key academic details. These include dual-degree programs, academic mobility rules, ECTS credit recognition, and thesis procedures. Priority fields of study cover electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and the chemical industry. Representatives from both universities attended the signing, including NTU 'KhPI' Rector Professor Yevgen Sokol and OVGU Rector Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens Strackeljan. The new framework also strengthens collaboration in student exchanges, research projects, and information sharing.
The signing of these documents reinforces the stability of Ukrainian-German academic ties. The program provides structured pathways for Ukrainian students to continue their education in Germany. It also expands opportunities for joint research and academic mobility between the two institutions.
