Modules consist of several course components and are usually worth 5, 6 or 10 ECTS upon completion. The course offer at the Geosciences Department is based on attending whole modules. The components might be a lecture, a seminar, a field trip and/or a colloquium. A module with only a lecture and a seminar might be worth 5 ECTS, one including an additional field trip or own research project might be worth 10 ECTS. Not attending or completing all the components of a module automatically means being accredited less ECTS.
