Definition of a module
According to the requirements of the Bologna Declaration that apply to all European universities, a programme of study
must be structured in the form of modules.
A module comprises one or more learning units.
EHL offers 2 types of module: integrated modules and non-integrated modules.
Non-integrated modules are composed of independent courses. Integrated modules include a set of courses which all
address the same central subject matter.
According to the Bologna Declaration, the level of a course is defined as follows:
B: Basic level course: introduction module presenting the basic concepts of a discipline;
I: Intermediate level course: modules that allow basic concepts to be studied in more depth;
A: Advanced level course: module that further develops and reinforces competencies.
