Records of Study Abroad and Recognition of Courses
Every placement abroad as part of studies at MU is considered a study stay or a traineeship. In both cases, this mobility must be part of the study and therefore recognized within the study at MU.
Recognition of foreign study stays and traineeships at the Faculty of Science of Masaryk University is governed by:
- MU Directive No. 2/2024, Rules for the Recognition of Students Stays Abroad and the Recognition of Their Outcomes
- Methodological Directive of the Centre for International Cooperation No. 1/2014, Records of Study and Traineeships Abroad
There is one person at each department responsible for recognition of students' stays abroad at the given department. These are the so-called department coordinators, i.e.
the persons authorised in accordance with the provisions of Art. 1 (4) of MU Directive No. 2/2024, Rules for the Recognition of Students Stays Abroad and the Recognition of Their Outcomes
Before departure - Creating a record of a stay
1) Complete the Learning Agreement if you are going on a study placement or the Learning Agreement for Traineeship if you are going on an internship. These documents, signed by the coordinators at the respective departments, are then used for the recognition of the placement upon your return.
In the case of the internships, usually, 5 credits are awarded per month of the internship - discuss this with your department coordinator!
2) Before leaving for your stay abroad, create a new record of your stay in IS and upload the required documents with all signatures
-> Use the application Internship and stays in IS
-> create a new record and fill in the required data and a document:
These documents are the Learning Agreement for study placements or the Learning Agreement for Traineeships for internships
3) Make the most of your stay!
DO NOT REGISTER THE COURSES YOU WANT TO TAKE BEFORE YOU LEAVE!
Upon arrival - Recognition of stay
After returning from the placement, the Confirmation of Study Period and Transcript of records scan for the study stay must be uploaded to the IS placement record, or Traineeship Certificate for an internship.
How do I get credit for my study placement courses?
Study stay: in the Internship Record, you upload the Confirmation of Study Period and Transcript of records, enter the completed courses taken at the foreign institution according to the completed Learning Agreement, see here. You will then apply for recognition.
In the case of an internship, at our faculty, you usually apply for recognition of the course XD110 Placement Abroad (but! some departments use their own course with different code - always discuss this with your department coordinator when preparing the TA), see here. Do not forget to upload the Traineeship Certificate as well!
Apply for recognition as soon as you can, at the latest within one month of receiving your transcript of marks or completing your internship!
