Prolongation is NOT possible! Courses Course offer The Faculty of Economics and Business Administration has a wide variety of courses in English at Master level. The course offer at Bachelor level is limited! All details can be found in our course catalogue: https://studiekiezer.ugent.be/exchange-programme-in-economics-and-business-administration/programma/2021 Note: the exchange programme is composed out of all the English instructed subjects at our faculty, in 5 different study fields in 2 different levels. Course schedules from the different study fields are not in accordance to each other! Students who speak Dutch as mother tongue or who hold a certificate of level B2 in Dutch can also select courses from the Dutch programme, if they meet the course requirements. Students can also take courses taught at other faculties (max. 40% of the total workload in the LA) if the faculty concerned agrees. Requirements Study level Bachelor: courses are instructed at 3th year Bachelor. This means that prospect students need to have completed minimum 120 ECTS in the (relevant) home degree by the start of the exchange period. Study level Master: to include Master courses in the curriculum, prospect students need to have completed minimum 180 ECTS in the (relevant) home degree by the start of the exchange period. Students need to check if they meet the initial competences, the course requirements: http://www.ugent.be/eb/en/exchange-students/course-requirements.htm Workload The Faculty of Economics and Business Administration only considers exchange applications with a minimum workload of 24 ECTS/semester. Important: incoming exchange students are required to have a balanced workload between the exchange curriculum and the workload of the degree components that would normally be completed at the sending institution (and which will be ‘replaced’ after successful completing the exchange programme). This means that the workload of educational components at the sending institution (to be replaced during mobility) should also amount minimum 24 ECTS (= table B of the LA)! Nominated students should have at least 24 ECTS available (thesis/internship not included) in their degree programme at the start of the exchange period, for credit transfer to ‘replace’ degree components during mobility. Course registration The formal course registration needs to be completed during the first two weeks of the academic semester. Students will receive all information about registration during the Welcome Days, just before the beginning of the semester. Can Bachelor students take Master courses? Bachelor students might be allowed to take a Master course if they can proof they meet the initial competences and the course requirements of that specific course + with explicit approval from the UGent lecturer in charge. This means no guarantees, about the curriculum, can be provided before mobility. Exams The evaluation can be based on permanent and/or periodic evaluation. In case the final evaluation is based on several partial evaluations, only the final total grade will be mentioned on the transcript of records. Students are automatically registered for exams and re-sit exams. There’s no extra subscription or payment required. Grading Exams are graded on a 20 point scale. A student with a score of at least 10/20 obtains a credit for that course, with the number of ECTS-points associated with the course. Every student is entitled to two examination opportunities per course per academic year. Grade conversion and ECTS: https://www.ugent.be/en/ghentuniv/principles/internationalisation/ects/grading.htm Language requirements A good knowledge of Dutch and/or English is essential for studying at Ghent University.
