General information

All BA programmes require 180 credits to complete to be able to graduate. The 180 credits must be the ones described in the programmes’ curricula. (You find your curriculum HERE. Pay attention to the year of admission!)

Each BA curriculum (study unit list) contains a 50-credit specialisation module, usually named “Differentiated Studies”. This module can be completed either by taking a specialisation offered by your own BA programme, or by selecting a minor programme, which is a 50-credit package of another study programme.

The specialisations and minors must be started in the 2^nd year of the BA studies, except for some programmes (more information in the study unit list of the relevant programme).

Therefore, students must choose the specialisation or minor by the end of the first year, or earlier. The application for the programmes in Neptun is in May-June every academic year.

• The specialisation options should be checked in your programme’s curriculum.
• You can read more about the Minors here: https://www.btk.elte.hu/minors

If you are interested in taking a minor instead of a specialization from your study programme, please check the MINOR PAGE on the Faculty website + contact your international or study coordinators for further discussion.
