Romanian Academic Grading System
Our System Explained
European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System
The ECTS makes teaching and learning in higher education more transparent across Europe and facilitates the recognition of all studies. The system allows for the transfer of learning experiences between different institutions.
In our university, for the 4 years curriculum, a total of 240 credits are required for graduation, along with the passing of the graduate thesis.
In our university the following numbers of credits are needed for each academic period:
- 1 full academic year – 60 credits;
- 1 semester – 30 credits;
- 1 term/trimester – 20 credits.
Romanian Academic Grading System
Within the Romanian universities, a 10-point scale is used, 5 being the minimum grade for passing, 10 is the highest grade. In a few cases (like physical education, for example) the passed/failed result is used.
TUIASI uses a transferable system that follows the general lines of the European ECTS. Each subject from the curricula has an assigned number of credits. The student is entitled to those credits if the subject is passed (with a minimum mark of 5 or with a “pass” result).
