Free choice

The procedure for choosing academic disciplines is regulated by the following documents:

  • Regulations on the formation and procedure for selecting academic disciplines in the section "Academic disciplines at the student's choice" of the curricula of bachelor's and master's degrees; on the approval of educational and professional programmes, curricula of bachelor's and master's degrees
  • The Procedure for Forming an Individual Educational Trajectory of a Higher Education Applicant at KrNU
  • List of academic disciplines of the student's choice (link)

You can view the regulatory documents on the page Educational Department.

According to the Regulations, at least 25% of the total number of academic disciplines are "free choice" disciplines. Bachelor's degree students choose their disciplines in the 2nd year (4th semester) by 1 April. Masters and PhDs choose their disciplines within 2 weeks of enrolment.
