Tips for course selection:

  • Please select the courses only from the catalogue for International Studies which gathers all English taught subjects at TTK UAS for each academic year. Other courses are only offered in Estonian.
  • Courses should be selected according to your study area preferably from the module of one institute. The selection can be complemented by the subjects offered by the Centre for Humanities and Economics and the Centre for Sciences. These courses can be added to the list chosen from the pertinent institute. The Centres offer elective subjects that are more of a general nature to support specialized studies and can be chosen by students of any study field.
  • Courses offered by the institutes are specialized and, with some exceptions, usually require previous knowledge of the study field. Please read carefully the information on each subject.
  • Please check carefully the semester of the course. Below the modules, under the tab “Typical study plan” the course offering is sorted by semester.
  • Overlaps in the schedule may occur if you select courses from different academic units. In case of an overlapping schedule, you may have to change your Learning Agreement.
  • Some subjects are only offered to our sessional study students who attend classes once a month during their study sessions and therefore might fall on Saturdays.
  • Please note that there are two options for evaluation of the learning outcome: graded/ differential (graded prelim or examination) or not graded/non-differential (prelim). In case of non-differential assessment method, the student will not be given a grade, but the subject will be assessed either as “Passed” or “Failed” accordingly.
  • Please note that the Institute of Service Economy is located about 100 kms east of Tallinn, in Mõdriku village. If you choose subjects from their offer, some travel might be necessary from time to time!
