CERTIFICATES AND DIPLOMAS

In France, Switzerland and Belgium, privateinstitutions cannot use the words Bachelor their programmes. We therefore use the terms Undergraduates 1° CYCLE (3 years – 180 ECTS) B.A. Note that these diplomas are equivalent to Bachelor’s degrees, but are not state- approved diplomas.
