Since its inception, ITS has been working on improving the quality of education and the institution as a whole to provide its students with the best education in the field of information technology. In addition to regular academic activities, ITS supports and actively encourages its students to engage in various extracurricular activities. Therefore, we have adopted the Regulation on the Evaluation of Extracurricular Activities of ITS Students, which regulates the conditions and procedures for evaluating extracurricular activities and rewards students for their involvement in various forms of activities, such as participation in ITS organs and bodies, participation in scientific research and professional work, participation in internships not included in the enrolled study program, participation in the activities of official clubs and sections, voluntary work in the local community, participation in sports events and competitions at national and international levels, participation in the organization and work of winter and summer schools, workshops, and conferences, involvement in the activities of students with disabilities, as well as participation in various cultural, artistic, and sports activities.
For each activity recognized as extracurricular, students can receive a corresponding number of ECTS credits, which are recorded in the diploma supplement. These credits do not affect students’ obligation to pass all exams specified by the study program. The ITS Commission for the evaluation of extracurricular activities of students determines the fulfillment of conditions and the scope of activities expressed in ECTS credits for extracurricular activities. Students can simultaneously apply for the allocation of ECTS credits on multiple grounds, and the application is submitted from October 1 to October 30 for activities carried out during the previous academic year. Exceptionally, in case a student graduates, they may submit the application before this deadline.With the introduction of this regulation, ITS aims to encourage its students to actively participate in various extracurricular activities and gain additional knowledge, skills, and experiences that will benefit them in their future work and career development. By rewarding additional ECTS credits for involvement in extracurricular activities, ITS emphasizes the importance of these activities and recognizes them as additional value that will contribute to the improvement and development of students.
