The study programmes have defined learning outcomes in line with the Qualifications Framework for the Grand

Duchy of Luxembourg (levels 6-8). The validation of learning outcomes forms the basis for granting ECTS to

students. Learning outcomes are described for the curriculum and for courses. They are documented and

accessible through the website or the e-learning platform of the University.

Methodological Notes:

I) only first year registration areconsidered.

II) ECTS are computed oncompulsory classes offered duringthe entire academic year.

Tutoring is offered to all Bachelor students in their first year of study in all three faculties. Some study

programmes and faculties provide tutoring also to students in their second and third year of study. Joint tutoring

at faculty level that trains students in generic academic skills has been offered for the first time in the academic

year 2015/16. A student-led initiative is currently preparing proposals for a further development of academic

support to students at the University.

Pedagogical chart

The University supports a unified e-learning and online course management platform (Moodle) that is used by

course instructors throughout all faculties. As part of its digitization strategy, the University is currently putting in

place an infrastructure for collaborative, digitally enhanced on-campus learning. Digital educational technology

supporting peer and blended learning, flipped classroom practices, and more continuous student-instructor

interaction is being tested, and the University is in the process of systematically integrating this technology in its

study programmes. Several study programmes also offer open online courses (MOOCs) for distance learning.

A high-level academic working group at the Vice-Rectorate for Academic Affairs is in the process of defining an

overarching educational strategy for the University. This strategy will be implemented as the Educational Charter

of the University by the beginning of the academic year 2017/18.

All figures and notes refer to the academic year 2015/2016

Methodological notes:

I) The number of partneruniversities in 2016 is counted.More than one agreement can be inplace within the same university.

II) Starting from the academic year2016/2017 a student's first and second nationality is counted, whereas previous results were based only on the first nationality.This methodology complies with international standards and avoids systematic biases in terms of national diversity within the student population.
