The Swedish educational system

 

Academic achievements (the student workload) at Lund University are measured according to a credit system. 1.5 credits equal approximately one week of full-time studies. Thus, after one semester of successful full-time studies (participating according to requirements and passing the examinations) you will be awarded 30 credits.

Courses at the Centre usually consist of 7.5 or 15 credits each. Courses are always taken consecutively one at a time, so that there are no over-lapping courses.
