Was sagen die ECTS-Credits denn eigentlich für einen Bachelor in Wirtschaftsrecht aus?
What do the ECTS credits actually mean for a Bachelor's degree in Business Law?
Every Bachelor's degree course in Europe, including the Bachelor's degree in Business Law, is subject to the Bologna reform, which uses the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) to calculate credit points. In this way, achievements are comparable and can also be credited to other courses, Universities or countries. A Bachelor's degree course is awarded 180 ECTS credits, which, with a workload of around 30 hours per credit point, corresponds to a total workload of 5,400 hours. However, this is spread over three years and includes not only the actual time spent in lectures but also the Bachelor's thesis and the hours you spend on self-study. This would correspond to an average learning and workload of around 34 hours per week, but this is a mere assumption and not a binding measure, also because the speed and effectiveness of learning are very individual. For each module you complete, you will receive additional credits, so that you will accumulate all the necessary credit points in the course of your business law studies. How much time you need to plan per week for your Bachelor in Business Law can therefore only be predicted very roughly and depends to a very large extent on you, your willingness and motivation to learn, your interests and inclinations.
