INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS
At Sumy State University, students’ knowledge is assessed according to the credit-module system (CMS). The schedule of the educational process provides for the division of the academic year into 2 semesters, each of which is divided into 3 modular cycles. An examination session is held at the end of each semester. The academic year contains 60 credits, and the semester – about 30 credits of student work. The student completes approximately 1.5 credits of academic work in a week. Credit – a conditional minimum unit of measurement of the amount of student work in the study of a particular component of the curriculum or a particular discipline, mastered by the student during his studies. It determines the amount of classroom and independent work of the student. The credit is 36 academic hours. The assessment scale for the discipline (R) is determined in proportion to the total amount of academic work in the discipline: R = 40 * K, where K is the total amount of academic discipline in credits.
