ENROLMENT IN A HIGHER YEAR OF STUDY (ACCORDING TO THE TRANSFER CRITERIA AMONG STUDY PROGRAMMES AND CONDITIONS FOR ACCELERATED ADVANCEMENT)

Transferring between study programmes is possible according to the Higher Education Act, Criteria for transferring between study programmes and other regulations of this field.

Transfer between study programmes is the enrolment in the higher year of the study programme, in case of leaving the studies in the first (initial) study programme and continuation of studies in another study programme of the same degree. The transition takes into account the comparability of the study programmes and the completed study obligations of the candidate in the initial study programme. The transition between study programmes is also enrolment of the graduate in the higher year study programme of the same degree.

Transferring between study programmes is granted to candidates, provided that the following conditions have been met:

- the candidate fulfils the requirements for admission to the study programme,

- the senate of the faculty or the competent faculty commission estimates that the candidate can be recognized for at least half of the ECTS credit points obligations from the previous study programme, which relate to the compulsory subjects of the study programme to which the candidate is transferring;

- the completion of the initial study programme which the candidate is transferring from ensures the acquisition of comparable competencies as those envisaged by the study programme.

Enrolment is also open to candidates of a comparable study programme abroad who have been, in the process of recognition of their previous studies (in accordance with Assessment and Recognition of Education Act), legally granted the right to continue their studies in the study programme.

Applications for transferring between study programmes are considered by the relevant commission. In accordance with the Criteria for transferring between study programmes the commission takes into account the comparability between study programmes and study obligations the candidate has completed in the previous study programme, that can be recognized in this study programme.

The candidate may also be required to complete differential exams as defined by the relevant faculty commission.

IN CASE OF ENROLMENT LIMITATION the candidates are selected according to average grade obtained during

the study programme they are transferring from. Candidates can apply for recognition of passed examinations during previous education on the basis of the submission of the subject curriculum. The decision on the recognition of examinations on the proposal of the department is made by the senate of the faculty or the working body of the senate authorized by the senate, ie. competent faculty commission.

The graduate acquires theoretical and practical knowledge and the ability to work in environments that require broad awareness and understanding of social and cultural issues, phenomena, and processes at the local, national, and international levels.

Therefore, the graduate is employable in research institutions (as a collaborator or assistant in project work), governmental and non-governmental organizations and institutions, as well as associations both in Slovenia and abroad, in international organizations, and in the broader fields of culture and tourism.
