Visiting students have all the rights and obligations of students of the host institution for the duration
of their attendance at the host institution of higher education, in accordance with the approved programme of
cooperation.
Visiting students may not transfer, be ranked, or obtain an academic degree in the host institution of
higher education. This restriction does not include obtaining certificates of course attendance, school
certificates or other non-academic titles, which correspond to the course attendance period of visiting
students and are in line with the terms and conditions of current internal legislation.
Mobile students’ academic units (ECTS), duration of study, successful course attendance, and grades
from the host institutions are all taken into consideration, and are transferred and recognized by the home
institution, so long as these courses are included in the approved collaboration programme.
The ECTS credit unit is a unit that measures student workload, which, as a rule, corresponds to the
effort required to participate, attend and pass an examination in an available course. The basic allocation of
instructional units is estimated at 60 per academic year, or 30 per semester, or 20 per trimester. These
academic units may be transferred from one University to another, so that students, upon returning to the
home Institution after studying—from 3 to 12 months—at the host Institution, would transfer any credit units
acquired there.
Additional information may be found in the ECTS literature, which may be obtained from the
Department of International Relations—Educational Programmes and Cultural Exchanges. Contact: Doris

The ASFA Erasmus programme is coordinated by professor Georgios Chouliaras. In the Department

hour of instruction per week over one semester, if this consists of independent course lectures, and from one
to three hours of instruction or practical training per week over one semester for other methods of
