IPICS ECTS acknowledgement

The IPICS course ends with a group presentation and requires students to hand in an essay. Topics will be assigned at the end of IPICS. Both, presentation and essay will be used to grade students. The IPICS offers upon completion a certificate stating course content, lecturers, duration, and final grade. This certificate will be honored with 4 ECTS points by the IPICS Universities. External students will receive the same certificate. Please ensure with your home institution whether and how this certificate is accepted. Certificates will only be awarded if the course is finished completely, meaning fully attended and with passed home exam (essay).
