The curriculum of each degree programme must indicate the maximum number of times study attainments can be completed or retaken and the organisation of exams (Education Regulations 18).
A sufficient number of opportunities must be provided for students to complete study attainments, taking into account the normative duration of study set for the degrees. Student shall have the right to raise the grade of a passed course and to re-take a failed course at least once. Taking this into account, the number of times a course grade can be raised and the number of times a course can be re-taken may be limited in the curriculum. To raise a course grade and re-take a course, the entire course or a partial study attainment is either re-taken or its grade raised. Raising grades and re-taking courses take place at the beginning of the curriculum or course in a manner specified in writing by the teacher in charge of the course. A graded and approved thesis (incl. a Bachelor’s thesis) cannot be re-taken or its grade raised. (Education Regulations 30)
