Energy Security Studies program is a full-time Master’s program offered by the Department of International Relations and European Studies and the Faculty of Social Studies. The standard duration of the program is 4 semesters. Typically, the first three semesters are devoted to coursework, while the last semester is a thesis- writing semester. Coursework includes reading assignments, written assignments, class presentations and exams. During the last semester, students conduct research and write their Master’s theses. All courses are taught in English. The language of assigned readings, exams and individual consultations is also English. Courses are divided into two categories: compulsory and optional courses. Compulsory courses constitute the core of the program. All of them must be completed in the course of study. In addition, the program offers optional courses. The number of optional courses taken must be such that the credit requirements for optional courses are fulfilled. Credits are awarded for successful completion of the courses. In order to be able to register for the final Master’s exam in Energy Security Studies, students should earn a total number of 120 credits, out of which 64 credits should be earned in compulsory courses and 56 credits in optional courses. Out of the 56 optional-course credits, 10 credits can be earned in courses that are not part of the Energy Security Studies program. In case the ECTS value of the obligatory courses is changed during your studies and number of credits for obligatory courses is lower due to this change, the students are required to compensate for the missing credits by taking some optional courses of the appropriate ECTS value. However, since courses external to the program have their own registration rules, the Energy Security Studies program cannot guarantee that students will necessarily be allowed to register for their preferred external courses and does not assume any responsibility to this effect.
