Admission without an Undergraduate Degree

Therefore, we cannot accept applications without a completed university degree.

Policy on ECTS Credits and Graduation Requirements

• To graduate with the MA, learners must achieve a total of 300 ECTS by the end of the program.
• Learners with a 180 ECTS bachelor’s degree enrolling in the 120 ECTS MA will meet the requirement naturally.
• Learners with a 210 ECTS bachelor’s degree enrolling in the 90 ECTS MA will also meet the requirement.
• In rare cases, learners with a 180 ECTS bachelor’s degree seeking the 90 ECTS MA may have 30 ECTS credited from professional experience to reach the required 300 ECTS. This is strongly discouraged in favor of the 120 ECTS program.
• Professional experience must be relevant to MA subjects, involve at least two years of full-time work, and may include sustainability, innovation, or technology-related roles.
