Cross-Curricular Electives (ETC): Physical Education Classes

Elective cross-disciplinary courses (ETC) give you flexibility in your academic program. These required modules complement your major. They allow you to develop cross-disciplinary skills and enrich your Bachelor’s or Master’s degree program. The sports-related ETCs give you the opportunity to participate in a sport while earning ECTS credits.

Warning

ETCs are not offered in all degree programs (they are primarily available in bachelor’s and master’s programs). Be sure to check that your program curriculum includes the option to choose an ETC before you enroll!
