Πρόσβαση σε Περαιτέρω Σπουδές

Οι απόφοιτοι του προγράμματος μπορούν να γίνουν δεκτοί σε σπουδές Τρίτου Κύκλου (Διδακτορικές Σπουδές).

Ελάχιστη προϋπόθεση για εισδοχή στο μεταπτυχιακό πρόγραμμα σπουδών αποτελεί η κατοχή πτυχίου (Bachelor’s Degree), από αναγνωρισμένο πανεπιστήμιο.

Επαρκής Γνώση Αγγλικής Γλώσσας

Οι φοιτητές πληρούν τις απαιτήσεις για την αγγλική γλώσσα, εάν η γλώσσα διδασκαλίας του πρώτου τους πτυχίου ήταν η αγγλική. Σε άλλη περίπτωση, θα πρέπει να προσκομίσουν πιστοποιητικό TOEFL με ελάχιστο βαθμό 550 paper-based ή 213 για εξέταση computer-based, ή Internet-based TOEFL (iBT) με βαθμολογία τουλάχιστον 79-80 ή GCSE “O” Level με ελάχιστο βαθμό “C” ή IELTS με βαθμολογία 6.5 ή επιτυχία στις κατατακτήριες εξετάσεις αγγλικής γλώσσας του Πανεπιστημίου Λευκωσίας, επίπεδο ENGL-100. Το Πανεπιστήμιο προσφέρει μαθήματα Αγγλικών όλων των επιπέδων, βοηθώντας τους φοιτητές να φτάσουν στο επίπεδο που απαιτείται για εισδοχή σε μεταπτυχιακό πρόγραμμα.

Η αξιολόγηση του μαθήματος αποτελείται συνήθως από μια τελική εξέταση και συνεχή αξιολόγηση. Η συνεχής αξιολόγηση μπορεί να περιλαμβάνει μεταξύ άλλων, εβδομαδιαίες διαδραστικές δραστηριότητες, μελέτες, θετική συμμετοχή στις συζητήσεις στο φόρουμ του μαθήματος κτλ.

Η βαθμολογία υπολογίζεται βάσει του βάρους της τελικής εξέτασης, της συνεχούς αξιολόγησης και της πραγματικής αριθμητικής βαθμολογίας που λήφθηκε σε αυτές τις δύο αξιολογήσεις. Με βάση την βαθμολογία των μαθημάτων υπολογίζεται ο μέσος βαθμός του εξάμηνου (GPA) ενός φοιτητή καθώς και ο γενικός μέσος όρος (CPA).

Ο φοιτητής πρέπει να συμπληρώσει 90 ECTS καθώς και όλες τις απαιτήσεις του προγράμματος.

Ο ελάχιστος απαιτούμενος γενικός βαθμός (CPA) είναι 2.0. Παρά το γεγονός ότι με το βαθμό ‘D-‘ το μάθημα θεωρείται ότι ολοκληρώθηκε επιτυχώς, ο απαιτούμενος μέσος όρος είναι το ‘C’ για να επιτευχθεί ο ελάχιστος απαιτούμενος γενικός βαθμός (CPA) 2.0.
