The academic year consists of four periods (P1-4) and each semester is divided into two periods. The autumn semester is P1-P2 and the spring semester is P3-P4. 30 ECTS correspond to a semester of full time studies and each period consist of 15 ECTS. 

It is preferable that you choose two courses of each 7.5 ECTS, in total 15 ECTS, during one period in order to avoid schedule conflicts. Many of our courses have specific entry requirements that are specified in the syllabus. Please read them carefully before applying.
