Examinations


The Academy, to secure Europe-wide parity, adopts the European system for assessing university studies, known as the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). Students gain the ECTS credits for each course only by passing the relevant examination. At the end of each semester the student is required to have gained a pass in a design examination plus theoretical subjects for a total of 30 ECTS.
For more details, students are referred to the Rules of Study at the Academy, which can be obtained from the Faculty office.
