Instruction Hours

Classes take place between 8:00–19:50 (8:00 AM – 7:50 PM). There may be long breaks between your classes, however not that long that it would be worth going to the dormitories and back. You can spend the breaks in break/relaxation rooms called Respirium in building B.

 

 

General Study Principles

The fundamental prerequisite for successful completion of the study is regular and active participation in lectures and practical classes

The Dean may decide on special rules for participation in the practical classes and the Physical Education subject in case of students with an extraordinary study plan (hereinafter referred to as "ESP").

 

Study obligations

Read here about how it works with exams, credits, and grading at UCT

  • Fulfilment of study obligations is bound to the continuity of study obligations. The requirements for continuity conditions are determined by the study program guarantor and the course guarantor and can be found in the Study Information System.

STUDY PLAN

  • Subjects are divided into Compulsory, Compulsory-elective, and Elective subjects.
  • A student must successfully pass all compulsory subjects. A student has to choose a minimum of compulsory-elective subjects from the prescribed amount of compulsory-elective subjects. A student may take elective subjects per their interest.  
  • A student can retake the same subject a maximum of three times. In the case of a re-registered subject, the student has the same conditions for fulfilling it as during the previous registration.
  • The semester ends with fulfilling all subjects prescribed by the study plan and obtaining the number of credits corresponding to at least thirty times the number of already completed semesters no later than the end of the examination period of the given semester.

EXAMS

  • Students register/unregister for the exams via the Study Information System (SIS).
  • If a student has failed to unregister from the examination for serious reasons, they may excuse their absence in advance (!) directly to the examiner.
  • Unexcused absence or unrecognized excuse for absence from the exam is assessed by the classification "F".
  • A student has the right to two re-sits should they fail the first term of the exam. However, they must respect the terms announced by the department conducting the subject.
  • The right to re-sit an exam expires if the student has not used the opportunity to take the exam within the regular examination period. 

ENROLLMENT IN THE NEXT SEMESTER

  • To register for the next semester of the study program, the student must obtain at least 15 credits from compulsory and compulsory-elective subjects in the previous semester.
  • To enroll in the next year of the study program, a student may lack a maximum of 15 credits out of the number of credits corresponding to thirty times the number of semesters already completed.

CLASSIFICATION 

  • Test classification:
  1. "A" (1,0 / excellent),
  2. "B" (1,5 / very good),
  3. "C" (2,0 / good),
  4. "D" (2,5 / satisfactory),
  5. "E" (3,0 / sufficient),
  6. "F" (4,0 / insufficient).
  • The examination classification is published in the SIS by the examining teacher.
