- <strong>and</strong> the Capstone assignment <strong>of</strong> 4.0 credits.<br />

If, during the period <strong>of</strong> study abroad, a student acquires 30.0 credits instead <strong>of</strong> 26.0<br />

credits, the additional 4.0 credits may be used to substitute one <strong>of</strong> the required skills<br />

trainings, with the exception <strong>of</strong> the QM III skills training (<strong>and</strong> the Capstone<br />

assignment).<br />

A maximum <strong>of</strong> 4.0 credits <strong>of</strong> the study abroad requirements or a skills training <strong>of</strong> 4.0<br />

credits can be substituted by doing an internship. A maximum <strong>of</strong> 6.5 credits <strong>of</strong> the<br />

study abroad requirements may be substituted by doing a summer course.<br />

Guidelines are published on EleUM.<br />

A combination <strong>of</strong> a summer course <strong>and</strong> an internship in order to substitute credits for<br />

the study abroad is not allowed.<br />
