Information about ECTS

The ECTS credit system is implemented at AUCY following an institutional framework to determine the number of credits per course/programme. ECTS refers to the European Credit Transfer System which is a learner-centred system for credit accumulation and transfer based on transparency in relation to learning, teaching and assessment processes.

ECTS credits reflect the learning that has been acquired by an individual taking into account the learning outcomes and workload. 60 ECTS credits are allocated per a fulltime academic year to educational components such as course units, dissertations etc. ECTS credits are awarded to learners upon achieving the learning outcomes of the qualification and/or its components. Credits awarded in one programme may be transferred to another programme at the same institution or another.
