Higher education structure at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Tuzla: Influence of the Bologna agreement

摘要

The University of Tuzla has in the recent past implemented all its activities in both institutional and legal terms. As a result, all higher education institutions (Faculties) are now integrated in one legal entity - the University. In doing so, the university has been guided by European standards in higher education. The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, as a member of the University of Tuzla, began to educate the first generation of undergraduate students in complete accordance with the Bologna Declaration in the academic year 2003/2004. At the same time the educational credit system ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) was established. In the academic year 2005/2006 Electrical Engineering was the first university faculty to establish one-year postgraduate studies with ECTS. Now students obtain a Bachelors degree after four years of study and a Masters degree after at least one additional year. An overview of the undergraduate and postgraduate course structure at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering is presented here.
