European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS)
The ECTS system is used throughout the European Higher Education Area. ECTS points are a numerical value used in the study regulations and module handbooks to indicate the amount of work required in the degree programme. For a successfully completed module, the university awards the number of points specified in the module description.
| ECTS credit point | Workload / Conversion |
| 1 ECTS credit point | 25 – 30 hours (lessons and self-study) |
| 30 ECTS credit point | 1 Semester |
| 60 ECTS credit point | 1 Academic year (1500 – 1800 hours) |
| 1.5 ECTS credit point | 1 Semester hour |
