                                  On the recognition of subjects


                           (as amended with effect from 1 November 2017)


Pursuant to Section 28(1) of Act No. 111/1998 Coll., on Higher Education Institutions and on
Amendments and Additions to Other Acts (the Higher Education Act), as amended (hereinafter referred
to as the "Higher Education Act"), I issue the following measure:


Article 1

Subject of modification

(1)      This measure regulates the rules for the recognition of courses for students enrolled in
Bachelor's or Master's studies at the Faculty of Informatics of Masaryk University (hereinafter
referred to as FI MU).

(2)      The measure follows the Study and Examination Regulations of Masaryk University, Article
14 Recognition of Completed Parts of Studies.


Article 2

Recognition of courses from completed studies

(1)      Courses taken at MU in previous unsuccessful studies may be recognised only if no more
than three years have elapsed since their completion in relation to enrolment in the study in
question.

(2)      If more than 5 years have elapsed since the completion of the course, a recommendation
from the current teacher of the recognised course, based on a match of content and assessment, is
required for recognition.

(3)      Courses that are optional in relation to the study for which they are recognised may be
recognised if they are courses from previous or concurrent studies at MU.


Article 3

Recognition of courses from concurrent studies

(1)      If the course was taken in a concurrent study prior to the commencement of the study in
which the student is applying for recognition and the application is made at the time of enrolment
in that study, the course may be recognised including its credit value. If the application is made
at a later date, the course can only be recognised with zero credit value.

(2)      If the course has been taken in a concurrent course of study after the commencement of the
course in which the student is seeking recognition, the course may be recognized with zero credit
value.


Article 4

Final provisions

(1)      It is recommended that requests for course credit be submitted during the period beginning
two weeks prior to the start of classes in the semester and ending the sixth week of classes in the
semester.

(2)      I delegate the responsibility for providing information on individual provisions and
monitoring compliance to the Vice-Dean for Bachelor's and Master's Studies.

(3)      This measure cancels Dean's Measure No. 5/2015 "On the Recognition of Courses" as
effective from 14 December 2015.

(4)      This measure shall enter into force on the date of its publication.

(5)      This measure shall enter into force on 1 November 2017.
