For the language courses you will receive 1-2 (ECTS CP) after successfully passing the exam. The workload of each course is defined on the certificates and each faculty decides about the recognition of credits.

The recognition of the courses isa decision of the examination offices of the faculties. The exact recognition rules/information can be obtained directly from your faculty contact person. For example at the School of Economics, courses such as Entrepreneurship, Scientific Work, Keynote, Intercultural Communication, etc. may be recognized within the module "Applied Scientific Work" (Bachelor curriculum), at the Faculty of Therapeutic Sciences may recognisze some courses as an elective. If you are a student of another faculty, please contact your examination office for recognition rules.
