The Eurocompetence modules are presented across the first, second and third semesters of the MA Programme Euroculture. For the completion of Eurocompetence I and II a student will receive 5 ECTS credits each, and for the completion of Eurocompetence III 10 ECTS credits.
Eurocompetence modules are characterized by an interdisciplinary and problem- oriented approach.
