Credit structure
The units which make up our programmes carry a fixed number of credits to describe workload.
A typical undergraduate year consists of 60 ECTS credits. Most units carry 6 credits, but some carry fewer or more.
Exchange and visiting students will normally be expected to take between a minimum of 24 and a maximum of 30 credits per semester.
Acquiring credits
You will automatically acquire the credits for units which you pass. The pass mark for most units is 40%.
Remember that the marks and credits are different things: credits reflect workload; marks reflect performance.
It is not normally possible for Exchange and Visiting Students to re-take failed assessments. However, departments will consider individual requests on a case-by-case basis.
