Course description
European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS)
The Studies at INSA Lyon are a 5 years course and are divided into ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System.)
This transfer system of credits is a system of attribution and transfer of Value Units (UV) that allows a European recognition and a greater legibility of the teaching programmes
Thanks to this system, a period of studies in a school abroad replaces a same length period in the original school despite the possible differences in the programmes’ content.

European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS).
- The ECTS eases the understanding and the comparison of the teaching programmes for all students, foreigners and locals alike.
- It also facilitates the students’ mobility and the academic recognition.
- The ECTS credits represent the quantity of work needed for each course unit compared to the global work load necessary to finish one complete year of studies in the school.
