9. ECTS – general informationEuropean Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) has been created to facilitate the exchange of students between higher education institutions and access to information about study programme. The system obliges a student’s home institution to recognize studies abroad without necessity of additional credits or repetition of the year.
ECTS guarantees principle transparency of completing studies by: allocating ECTS credits to each course, creating information package about a school and programmes of study.
ECTS credits are allocated to all obligatory courses in the study programme. They constitute a numerical value of student workload he has to do to get a credit for a particular course. There is no direct relation between the number of didactic hours and the number of ECTS credits allocated. The ECTS credits determine a student’s actual workload and contribution to get a credit for a course. They are allocated independently of forms of didactic classes (lectures, seminars, classes, workshops). Completing the year of studies requires accumulation of 60 credits (30 credits in a term on average). It enables a student to select courses depending on his own abilities and time.
Information package makes it possible to get to know well a university in which a student plans to study. It gives a student a chance to get acquainted with courses and study programme. It allows to select courses similar to those he has in his home institution. For each student who leaves to study abroad as well as for the one who returns from studies abroad there is a transcript of records. Credits for completed courses are allocated to courses which are obligatory in his home institution.
Table of contents – back www.ism.dswe.wroc.pl 5
Higher education institutions participate in ECTS programme voluntarily. They clearly determine principles of studies and have a flexible approach to the cooperation with partners. A crucial role is played by coordinators i.e. people responsible for contacts with other institutions and proper functioning of ECTS in a university.
Basic principles of ECTS:1. Principles of the system are the same for all kinds and forms of studies.
2. ECTS credits are allocated to all courses in the study programme.
3. Credits are allocated to a course, not to its particular component elements. Partial allocation of credits is possible in case when a course covers more than one term. Getting positive grades from the whole course is equivalent to allocating a student a proper number of ECTS credits.
4. To complete the year a student has to acquire:
sixty credits in a year,
thirty in a term (unless the study programme allows deviation from the number of credits in a term).
5. Getting a diploma requires fulfilling rigors included in the study programme and getting a determined number of credits.
180 – to complete first-cycle studies 300 – to complete first and second-cycle studies
