All KEA’s programmes are governed by a curriculum. Among other things, the curriculum describes your subjects, what semester they occur in, their intended learning goals for your knowledge, skills and competences, how to work with the study and when the exams will take place.
Curriculum
You can find your curriculum on your programme page
The goal of your course of study is for you to acquire knowledge, skills and competencies within disciplines of professional relevance to your line of education. KEA is a higher education institution and therefore offers teaching on the tertiary level.
The curriculum refers to knowledge, skills and competencies to describe the concrete learning objectives of your education, i.e. what your learn. EU institutions use knowledge, skills and competences as a common frame of reference to compare educational programmes. Among other things, this enables credit transfer. In your programme curriculum, you’ll find the specific learning goals for your programme, split into knowledge, skills and competences.
Knowledge and skills may be learned and form the basis for competences. We obtain knowledge by studying something, by taking classes and reading, whereas we obtain skills by doing exercises corresponding to practice.
We have acquired competences when we’re able to combine new knowledge and skills as a basis for competent action, meaning that we are able to use both theory and practice to solve a task.
The subjects in your programme are worth a number of ECTS points. See more under ECTS.
