Curriculum Structure

The duration of the program is three years. In order to successfully complete the program, 180 ECTS credits must be collected. The number of credits is a quantitative measure of a student’s overall workload. They include actual lectures, as well as time spent preparing and evaluating lectures (attending events vs private study), taking exams, preparing for exams, seminar work and the thesis. In the third year, the student must choose one of the areas of specialization, while in the sixth semester, the student chooses the topic and works in parallel with the Microthesis course and the assigned mentor.
