Evaluation system
University uses the following grading scale:
- bardzo dobry (bdb) – 5,0 – EXCELLENT – outstanding performance with only minor errors
- plus dobry (+db) – 4,5 – VERY GOOD – above the average standard but with some errors
- dobry (db) – 4,0 – GOOD – generally sound work with a number of notable errors
- plus dostateczny (+dst) – 3,5 – SATISFACTORY – fair but with significant shortcomings
- dostateczny (dst) – 3,0 – SUFFICIENT – performance meets the minimum criteria
- niedostateczny (ndst) – 2,0 – FAIL – considerable further work is required
The ‘fail’ grade means that the test, course or exam has not been credited or passed and has to be resat.
System ECTS
Student earns the number of ECTS points assigned to the course upon fulfilling all requirements specified in the study plan and the curriculum and upon reaching the adequate level of learning outcomes assumed for this course.
The number of ECTS points to be earned in one semester is around 30 (usually varies between 27 and 33 points), and 60 points in the annual programme. The completion of the semester and the year of studies is conditioned by the number of points resulting from the study plan and the curriculum in accordance with the rules specified in the study regulations.
The minimum number of ECTS points required for graduation is:
- for the first-cycle studies: 180 ECTS
- for the second-cycle studies: 120 ECTS
- for the long-cycle master studies: 300 ECTS
In addition, ECTS points facilitate international mobility and partial completion of the study or internship programme abroad – for example, under the Erasmus+ programme.
