Learning Agreements

Process

In general, a Learning Agreement can be issued for our Bachelor’s and Master’s courses. Exceptions are theses on double degrees, which our chair will not credit.

In order to check if and which course you can gain credits for you, we need the following information:

• Number of ECTS (If you are going to a country which does not work with ECTS, please create a list of attendance times, as well as an overview of the type and extent of exams)
• A syllabus or description of the content of the course (in German or English)
• If possible: a literature list of the course
• The name of the course at FAU for which you would like to have your foreign course credited.
• Please use a meaningful subject in your e-mail to us, e.g. “Learning Agreement_year_surname_first name”

Please send this information via e-mail (as link or attachment) to angelika.zang@fau.de.  Please allow up to 4 weeks processing time.

The template for creating a Learning Agreement can be found on the website of the International Office.

After checking your documents, we will inform you asap if we will approve your Learning Agreement. Please allow up to 4 weeks processing time.
