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.

 Recognition of credits 

Once the activity has finished, the institution will give you a certificate that you must take to your Academic Administration Office (Gestió Acadèmica) to request your credits. Each faculty or centre determines the dates during which you may present this certificate.
