Study reviews are carried out under Art. 18 of the Study and Examination Code for Students of CTU in Prague (hereinafter SEC). The following reviews are carried out:
The review of the number of credit units for continuation of study consists in checking if the student
has fulfilled the minimum number of credit units for the past semester or academic year of study under Art. 18
par. 5 of SEC.*
Credit units for courses registered and recognized under Art. 17 par. 10 of SEC are not considered as credit units
received during this semester or academic year. They are only included in the total sum of credit units received
by the student.
The review of the fulfilment of the minimum number of credit units is carried out by the Student Registrar, always
at registration for the winter semester, and in the first year of study also at registration for the spring semester
of study.
During the study, the following review of the fulfilment of study duties is carried out: The review of the fulfilment of all study duties for the whole study, i.e. the duty of gaining all credits, classified credits and passing all examinations in courses prescribed by the study plan, in programmes with a standard time of study of 1.5 or 2 years respectively must be carried out no later than within two, or three years of study after the last registration for the study programme. The last day considered for the fulfilment of this review is the last day of the exam session immediately preceding the registration for the third, or fourth year of study. The application for review must be submitted by the student to the Student Registrar no later than with the registration for the diploma thesis.
The study plan specifies the succession of courses. By succession of courses is understood the fulfilment of all prescribed study requirements (such as a credit, classified credit, or an examination) for the respective course which precede the examination in this course, unless otherwise stated by the Recommended Study Plan.
Example: | course code | required succession |
101MA2 z,zk | 101MA1 |
A student may only take the examination in 101MA2 supposing he/she has successfully completed course 101MA1, i.e. gained a credit (z) for it and passed an examination (zk) in it.
Approved by the Scientific Committee of the Faculty of Civil Engineering, CTU in Prague on 10th of May 2007.
* Wording of Art. 18 par. 5 of SEC:
The minimum number of credit units necessary for continuation of study is as follows:
Time of study | Bachelor study programme | Master study programme |
for the first semester of study | 15 | 20 |
for the first academic year (2 semesters) | 30 | 40 |
for each following academic year of study (2 semesters) | 40 | 40 |
for each following academic year of study (2 semesters) if a student was not a CTU student for part of the academic year (due to interruption of study, or transfer) | 20 | 20 |
A different number of credit units may be set by the Dean under Art. 17 par. 9 to 11.
