Caucasus University
Joint European degrees and the largest English-taught catalogue in our list.
Caucasus University has 26 English-taught programs, more than any other university in our Georgia list, including joint degrees with European and American partner universities. It suits students who want an international business or IT degree and can meet a higher English requirement.
Why international students choose CU
Most programs are in business (16), followed by IT and engineering, design and the social sciences, at Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD level. Joint programs, such as the BBA run with Rennes School of Business in France, cost more than the standard tracks.
Entry requirements are higher than at most Georgian universities: IELTS 6.0, TOEFL 78 or B2, plus an online interview. Apply by 20 August for the Fall intake or by 20 October for Spring. Tuition can be split into two payments.
