1. CHOOSE YOUR CLASSES
The amount of work involved in the EcoS MA amounts to 120 ECTS credits. This corresponds to an expected period of 4 semesters, with the possibility to extend your studies for 2 more regular semesters.
- The 120 ECTS are distributed in 5 Modules (details on the 5 modules).
- Please see the courses available for SS 2023.
Your admission letter is valid for the whole academic year, which means that you can start your studies at EcoS in winter or summer semester. Offer of courses varies depending on the semester.
2. ENROL FOR YOUR CLASSES
Once you have selected the courses you wish to register for, make sure to keep in mind:
- Level 1 language courses begin during the winter term of the academic year. The work load is heavy, so it is strongly advised to take only one core seminar (M2 / M3) per semester.
- The amount of ECTS points recommended per semester is 30 (totalling 4 semesters of study).
