“The Georgian Technical University of Georgia is one of the oldest and the largest in the South Caucasus region, has leading scientists, specialists, promising young researchers, and students in the engineering-technological and humanitarian fields, citizens of Georgia and foreign countries.

Multifaceted international scientific collaboration, including with Austrian colleagues, is important for us. Our university has an excellent educational-scientific infrastructure and material-technical base in the form of modern laboratories, which we can use for successful collaboration and common goals. We will be glad if your cooperation with the Georgian Technical University deepens and you give lectures to the students of the International School of Design and the Faculty of Architecture”, said David Gurgenidze.
