Overview JOINT DIPLOMA WITH MICHIGAN

MEDTECH and UMD established a collaborative education initiative defined as “3+2 Dual Diploma Program” by which qualified students enrolled at MEDTECH, after successfully completing the first 3 years of their undergraduate curriculum, will be accepted into selected fields of study in the College of Engineering and Computer Science at UMD for the next 2 years to finish the required education curriculum to qualify for their bachelor’s degree awarded by MEDTECH and a master’s degree conferred by the Regents of the University of Michigan upon the recommendation of the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies and UMD.

At the end of the five years, students earn both an Engineering Diploma from MedTech and a Master’s Degree from the University of Michigan. According to this agreement, MedTech students will enjoy a significant reduction (80% reduction in the difference between out of state and in-state tuition fees).

In undergraduate education, the University of Michigan is ranked 5th in Electrical Engineering and 7th in Computer Engineering by the 2014 US News and World Report survey. The University is also known for having the best university library system in the country and for its first-class computer access services.

Almost half of the student body graduated in the top five percent of their high school class, and two thirds graduated in the top ten percent.

MedTech signs an important partnership agreement with the University of Michigan

Student testimony

I had my Baccalaureate with Honors from the" Pères Blancs "high school. I did not originally plan to join a private university, but because I did not get the choice of university I was hoping for, I decided to explore other opportunities. I heard about MedTech as the only English Speaking Engineering school in Tunisia. When I visited the campus, I was fascinated by the Laboratories and infrastructure.
That is how I decided to join MedTech and I do not regret it! I benefit from a unique study experience especially that it will allow me to enroll in the Renewable Energies specialization.

We are proud to have the 3+2 partnership program with MedTech. It is a graduate master’s cooperation degree between MedTech and the University of Michigan. We offer at the University of Michigan multiple options for MedTech students (such as Computer Information Science, Industrial Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering), so they could choose and pursue their Master degree at the specialization that they want. Moreover, they are offered the possibility to continue a Ph.D program at the University of Michigan.

Professor testimony

Basically, at Medtech, our engineering programs are inspired from the Anglo-Saxon/American approach to higher education, which allows an international exposure to our students.
Thanks to this partnership agreement, we are giving our students the option to continue their engineering experience in the United States so that they extend their chances for a brilliant future career.
