Its aim is, to makes programmes and the performance of students of higher education more transparent and comparable European-wide and to replace or complement the different local (national) standards within Europe. The ECTS consists out of two main elements:<\/p>\n<p><strong>ECTS-credits<\/strong><br \/>\nBy completing a course, seminar, module etc. you get awarded with ECTS-credit points. Every ECTS credit point stands hereby for a certain amount of work load. One year corresponds to 60 ECTS-credits. A 3-year Bachelors programme has therefore usually 180 ECTS-credits; a 2-year Masters programme usually 120 ECTS-credits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ECTS grading scale<\/strong><br \/>\nBesides the ECTS-credits, an ECTS grading system was defined by the European Commission. Since there are nearly as many different grading systems as countries, its aim is to make grades more comparable to each other. The ECTS grading system is not replacing the local grading systems but just meant as a supplement aside the local grades, for example on a transcript of records<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/education\/tools\/ects_en.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More information on ECTS<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Undergraduate programmes<\/strong><br \/>\nThe undergraduate programmes correspond to a number of 180 transferable study credits (ECTS \u2013 European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Master&#8217;s degree programmes<\/strong><br \/>\nMaster\u2019s degree programmes correspond to 120 transferable study credits.
