Seminars 2024-2025

As a part of the optional offer of credits, the Master’s Academic Commission will establish every academic course a list of seminars taught by reputed specialists in particular topics, guest lecturers from both national and international higher education institutions, as well as, occasionally, from companies.

The seminars scheduled to date for the actual academic year are listed below; this provisional list will be updated with other seminar proposals throughout the year. However, if the student wants to get an overall idea of the whole offer of seminars in an academic year, he/she can take a look of the list of seminars available in the previous academic year. This list suffers few changes from one academic year to the next one.

At the beginning of the course (July-Sep), the student should decide how many credits he/she wants to take in seminars. Then, the student shall have to enroll for the corresponding seminar subjects (called seminary 1-10), so that the enrolled subjects total the same number of credits. Later, at the end of the course the grades of the enrolled seminar subjects will be calculated from the grades obtained in the passed seminars. For example, if the student enrolled in a seminar subject of 1 ECTS and he/she passed two seminars of 0,5 ECTS, the grade of the seminar subject will be the mean of the grades obtained in these two seminars.

Students are allowed to pass seminars without being enrolled in any seminar subject. In such case the grades of these passed seminars will be saved until the student enrolls for some seminar subject in the next academic year.

Note that the specified seminar dates and times are tentative and subject to possible changes or cancellations due to guest lecturer scheduling problems.

To see the available seminars for the current course, visit the seminars web page.
