The organization of the educational process within an academic year is based on the academic calendar, which is approved by the decision of the University Academic Council.
The Academic Calendar is a schedule of educational and control activities, professional practices throughout the academic year, indicating rest days (holidays and vacations).
The academic calendar reflects periods of educational sessions, interim and final assessments, professional practices, and other types of academic work throughout the academic year, as well as rest days (holidays and vacations).
Each academic period concludes with a period of interim assessment of students.
The main types of professional practice are educational, pedagogical, industrial, pre-diploma, and research internships.
The introduction of a summer semester (except for the final year) of at least six weeks’ duration is permitted to meet the needs for additional learning, elimination of academic deficiencies or differences in curricula, study of academic disciplines and earning of credits by students at other educational institutions with their mandatory transfer and recognition at their own higher and/or postgraduate education institution, improvement of the Grade Point Average (GPA), and completion of a related or additional educational program, including within the framework of a dual-degree education program.
