ORGANISATION OF THE EDUCATION
The LMD system and the ECTS
Within the framework of the European
Higher Education System, French education
is organized in almost all the faculties
according to the following scheme:
• the bachelor‘s degree (fr. licence,
A - level + 6 semesters),
• the master‘s degree (A- level + 10 semesters),
• the doctorate (A - level + 16 semesters).
Thanks to the ECTS (European Credit Transfer
System) all students - whether they are
French or international - can easily understand
and compare their degree program to
any other European degree program.
30 ECTS credits are attached to the workload
of a semester, 60 ECTS to the workload
of a fulltime year of formal learning
(academic year).
The Bachelor’s degree is earned after 180
credits are obtained, the one year full
time postgraduate program (Master 1) with
240 credits and the two year postgraduate
program (Master 2) with 300 credits.

In 2010 the URCA obtained the European
Diploma Supplement Label issued by the
European Commission and assigned for a
period of three years on all its training.
The Diploma Supplement is a descriptive
annex given to each student when receiving
his diploma and offering
details about his study period and the
acquired competences.
The URCA approved a Charter of International
Exchange Programs to assure the
academic recognition of higher education
programs, including results of exams
taken at other European universities where
partnerships have been established.
