Third- and fourth-year students of ISTU can study at Shandong Jiaotong University. One of the main conditions is a good command of English and absence of academic failures. Upon completion of their studies, graduates will obtain two diplomas - a Bachelor's degree from ISTU and a Bachelor's degree from Shandong Jiaotong University.

According to the Vice-Rector of Shandong Jiaotong University, cooperation of two universities in the field of education will allow them to train world-class specialists.
