The EDUC Course Catalogue is a compilation of online and blended courses offered at one or more of the eight EDUC Alliance universities (University of Potsdam – Germany, Université Paris Nanterre – France, Université de Rennes I – France, University of Cagliari – Italy, University of Pécs – Hungary, Masaryk University – Czech Republic, University of South-Eastern Norway - Norway, Jaume I University - Spain) and is open to students within the EDUC Alliance. The course catalogue lists the individual courses as well as important information on content, duration and application for each course.
The courses offered in the EDUC course catalogue are very diverse and include courses from (almost) all subject areas and at different study levels. The range of courses on offer continues to grow, so it is worth checking back regularly.
As the universities of the EDUC Alliance have very different lecture periods, the time frames in which the courses are offered vary. Details can be found in the course catalogue in the respective course description. The schedule also depends on whether the courses take place asynchronously online, synchronously online or blended (i.e. as a mixture of online and face-to-face phases) - further details on this can also be found in the course catalogue.
In principle, the EDUC courses are open to all students within the EDUC Alliance as long as they are enrolled at one of the Alliance universities. There can be certain participation requirements for individual courses, which are noted in the respective course description.
Applications are usually sent to the university offering the course. Application details are listed in the respective course description in the course catalogue. For courses that are (also) offered by the University of Potsdam, please also note the registration deadline on PULS.
This depends on your individual study regulations (‘Studien- und Prüfungsordnung’) at the University of Potsdam and must be clarified with the examination board of your subject.
In principle, the recognition process is analogous to that of regular semesters abroad or corona-related online semesters abroad according to the guidelines for recognition or internal faculty or institute regulations.
It is advisable to conclude a Learning Agreement before starting the course in order to clarify the recognition with the local examination board in advance. An EDUC template for a Learning Agreement does not yet exist, which is why the general template of the International Office linked on the following page can be used.
After successful completion of the course, the university offering the course also issues an EDUC certificate or Transcript of Records, which lists the ECTS and confirms the achievement. Whether the university offering the course issues this and to what extent can be looked up in the course description in the EDUC course catalogue and, if necessary, clarified with the university offering the course.
Tip: If the chosen courses are from different subject areas, it is advisable to list the courses in separate Learning Agreements, as only one examination board can sign each.
