Attendance Regulations
The academic year at the University of Cyprus comprises two semesters: Fall Semester (September – December) and Spring Semester (January – May). Class attendance is compulsory.
The study programmes of the University are based on the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). An ECTS unit normally corresponds to a 25-30 hour workload per semester. Full-time status requires a course load of 21 ECTS per semester. Students carrying fewer credits are considered part-time.
The postgraduate programmes of each department are supervised by a three-member Postgraduate Programmes Committee, chaired by a Postgraduate Programmes Coordinator. The Coordinator may be the chairperson of the department or a member of the academic staff appointed by the chairperson. The other members of the committee are appointed by the Departmental Board. The Committee is appointed for a two-year term.
For every student in the Postgraduate Programme the department appoints an Academic Supervisor, whereas at the research stage of the Ph.D. a Research Supervisor is appointed. Students select a member of the academic staff to act as their Research Supervisor. The student’s choice must be approved by the Postgraduate Programmes Coordinator. The Research Supervisor guides the students in their research and provides the necessary help and advice.
The postgraduate programmes of study at the Master level lead to a Master Degree award (M.A, M.Sc., M.Eng.), and those at the Doctoral level lead to a Doctoral degree award (Ph.D). The award of a Master degree is subject to approval by the Departmental Board, while the award of a Doctoral degree is subject to approval by the University Senate. The final grade of the postgraduate degree is not written on the postgraduate diploma.
Course registration is held the week prior to the beginning of each semester electronically by the students. Information on registration procedures as well as the registration time table could be found in the announcements of the Academic Affairs and Student Welfare Service.
Students may add or drop courses in the second week of each semester electronically. No courses may be added after this time, although courses may be dropped. From the fourth until the seventh week of each semester only withdrawal from a course is permitted and this is noted on the student's academic record. A student who does not officially withdraw or who does not attend a course or who does not take the final examinations is graded with zero.
In exceptional cases students may request a postponement of their studies. This postponement cannot exceed two full semesters. Students who wish to postpone their studies must submit their application form together with all required information to the Departmental Board who will forward the application with remarks to the Faculty Board for a decision. The Dean of the Faculty informs the student of the Board's decision which is simultaneously announced to the Chairman of the department and the Academic Affairs and Student Welfare Service.
