Free-choice credits

The aim of free-choice credits is to give students the opportunity to receive multi-disciplinary training, rather than just their own syllabus. Because these credits are free-choice, they can include modules that do not fit in to a syllabus either because they are new subjects or because they are too specific. External institutions can also propose other activities that may be recognised by free-choice credits. The UAB also awards free-choice credits to elite athletes who study UAB courses from home. This does not depend on their achieving good results in competition.
