Study Abroad Academic Procedures
This page outlines some of the academic procedures relevant to
students coming to EBS London to study abroad.
Student ID card
Your student ID card is central to life at EBS London, as you
will need it to enter the building and also to borrow books from
the library. We will use the photograph that you sent in your
application to create your ID card, and you will be able to collect
it during the registration process on your first day.
Student e-mail
All students are given an e-mail address at EBS London in
the IT induction during induction week. We suggest you use this
email address while studying here, as we will use this to
communicate with you once you have arrived.
Classes
During the induction week, each student will be issued with
a personal timetable showing the times and locations of each
class. Most classes meet two or three times a week, for double
periods of 105 minutes or single periods of 50 minutes
each.
The teaching day runs from 9.00 to 19.00 Monday to
Friday. When there is no scheduled class, students are invited
to undertake personal study in the library or in one of the
computer labs.
Work Load
Students may take a maximum of 30 ECTS per
semester. There is an Business English Module
for Exchange Students available, which is delivered at
different levels to cater for all needs.
Availability of Modules
Every effort will be made by the School to offer all modules
which appear on the published list. However, student enrolment and
academic staff availability may affect the running of a module.
Furthermore, some optional modules are offered only upon sufficient
demand as determined by the respective Heads of Department and
approved by the Academic Director. EBS London cannot guarantee that
all modules requested by any one student will be offered during the
Autumn or Spring semesters.
IF A MODULE IS COMPULSORY FOR YOU ACCORDING TO
YOUR HOME INSTITUTION, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU INDICATE THIS
IN YOUR APPLICATION FORM.
Please note that once you have been assigned to your chosen
modules, you will not be allowed to alter your
selection. Therefore it is imperative that you
consider your options carefully. Only students who are not assigned
to their choices will be permitted to partake in the add/drop
period at the beginning of semester.
