CREDITS AND GRADING SYSTEM AT UMA Sample Clauses

CREDITS AND GRADING SYSTEM AT UMA. The European Commission has developed the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) to help students make the most of their studies abroad. Basically, this system is a way of measuring and comparing learning achievements and transferring them from one institution to another. Likewise, it helps higher education institutions to enhance their co-operation with other institutions by improving access to information on foreign curricula and providing common procedures for academic recognition. ECTS credits are a value allocated to modules to describe the student workload required to complete them. They reflect the quantity of work each course requires in relation to the total quantity of work required to complete a full year of academic study at the institution, that is, lectures, practical work, seminars, private work – in the laboratory, library or at home – and examinations or other assessment activities. UMA has introduced the ECTS into all its faculties and schools. With this system 60 credits represent one year of study (in terms of workload); normally 30 credits are awarded every six months (a semester) and 20 credits every term (a trimester). Your home institution sets the policy regarding the award of credit for coursework completed on an international exchange. You are responsible for knowing your home institution’s policies and procedures regarding this matter. Academic information of use to participants: Number of classes: Spanish student normally takes per term: 5-7 Number of hours per week students spends in class: 20-25 Number of weeks per term: 15 (+ 3-4 weeks for exams) The academic year runs from September/October to June (in some cases early July) with exams offered in February for the first term courses and finals in late June and early July for annual and second-term courses which test cumulative knowledge of the entire course.
