What is the cost?
The cost of additional studies is 130 EUR per 1 ECTS credit. However, candidates who submit an application for the ISM Master’s program by March 1st will receive a special discount, and the cost will be 70 EUR per 1 ECTS credit.
Can I choose shorter additional studies, i.e., fewer than 3 courses?
Yes, during the additional studies, you can earn the required credit difference by taking fewer than 3 courses. However, if you choose fewer courses, the discount on the 1 ECTS credit price will not apply.
*6 ECTS credits may be granted based on the candidate’s work experience or informal learning in the program’s field. The procedure for the evaluation and recognition of competencies is defined in the ISM University of Management and Economics’ procedure for the evaluation and recognition of competencies acquired through informal and self-education.
