OPTIONS
Nowadays, engineering is an integration of knowledge
from the fields of design, production, materials and
market-oriented economic subjects. Therefore, the
Bachelor diploma in integrated engineering will give
you the opportunity to start engineering activities, as
well as to continue your studies at master’s level.
TEMPORARY
RESIDENCE PERMIT
All foreigners coming to Estonia for the purpose
of studies must obtain a right of residence for the
duration of their studies. EU Students: must register

6 dormitories. Residences are based on “boxsystem” – furnished apartment with 2 rooms for
4 persons, with shared kitchen and a bathroom.
Rent per person in a twin room is around €125 per
month. As the number of places in the residences
is limited, university cannot guarantee a place for
all the students.
Private rooms and apartments for rent – apartments are usually found through Internet or rental
agencies operating in Tallinn. Prices depend on
the apartment, its location and number of rooms.
LIVING EXPENSES
The cost of living in Estonia, comparing to the rest of
the European Union, is very affordable. The average
monthly expenses of living for international students,
including accommodation, transport, food and some
other, can be estimated as around €500.
