Advanced Seminars
What are they?
Short courses (six sessions) aimed to complement student’s academic profile. They are optional, but highly recommended, as they constitute a great way of building the academic CV.
Upon completion of the course, it will be listed on the student’s official transcript.
Who can join?
The seminars are open to all students interested in deepening their knowledge on topics related to their program or exploring new areas of study.
First-year students are not allowed to participate in Fall semester seminars.
Registration Period (2024/2025):
1st Semester series: from September 4th to October 2nd, through the enrolment app (https://ieu-enrollment.ie.edu/)
2nd Semester series: from November 5th to 18th, through the enrolment app (https://ieu-enrollment.ie.edu/)
How much work?
Each seminar comprises 6 sessions. Attendance of at least 80% is required (5 sessions).
All seminars are evaluated, whether through participation, group work, or essays, and students will receive a grade for their performance.
The rules
Enroll in a maximum of 2 seminars per semester.
Each Seminar will count for 1 ECTS credit, offered at no extra cost, and will appear on your European Diploma Supplement (EDS). If the student wants the credit to be recognized as part of the degree’s total amount of ECTS, the student will have to pay.
Students can drop the courses during the ADD/DROP period, or before the second session if attended the first session; inform the professor and seminars coordinator.
Students will be graded 0.0 if attendance is not met (one missed session) and will appear on their trancript although it does not count for the GPA.
