Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a formal process that evaluates a student’s previously completed academic coursework to determine its equivalence to the requirements of their current degree program. This process allows students to receive credit for prior learning, potentially reducing the time and cost required to complete their degree.
Scope of Prior Learning Recognition
Our university facilitates the recognition of prior academic achievements under the following conditions:
-
Course Exemptions: Evaluating courses taken at another accredited university to exempt the student from equivalent courses in our curriculum.
-
Credit Equivalence for Transfers: Determining credit compatibility for students joining the program through Lateral or Vertical transfers.
Situations Eligible for Recognition
Students may apply for the recognition of their prior learning under the following circumstances:
Inter-University Course Transfers (Lateral & Vertical)
-
Curriculum Mapping: Matching courses taken at a previous higher education institution with the courses in the current Logistics Management program.
-
Compatibility Assessment: A detailed evaluation of the content, learning outcomes, and ECTS credits of previously completed courses to ensure they meet the standards of our program.
-
Transfer Applications: Specific credit equivalence and exemption evaluations for students admitted via Lateral Transfer (from similar departments) or Vertical Transfer (from vocational schools).
The Application Process
To ensure a smooth transition and credit recognition, students must follow the steps below:
-
Application Deadlines: RPL and credit transfer requests must be submitted within the dates specified in the Academic Calendar.
-
Required Documentation: Applicants are required to submit their Official Academic Transcripts and detailed Course Descriptions (Syllabi) from their previous university.
-
Academic Evaluation: Applications are formally reviewed by the Relevant Academic Unit (Department Board). Approved courses are then officially recorded as exemptions on the student’s transcript.
