This program allows students to complete both Bachelor’s and Master’s
degree in a period of five years, as opposed to a regular period of six
years. Students spend their first four years at SHIATS, and they move
to AIT in the fifth year to complete the Master’s program. The
Bachelor’s degree will be awarded by SHIATS and the Master's degree
will be awarded by AIT.
