Using the first semester of the Bachelor's degree in International Business as an example, we explain how 30 ECTS points can be distributed, namely among eleven subjects: six typical basic business subjects with three ECTS each, two specialist subjects with three ECTS each and three soft skills subjects with little preparation and follow-up work that bring you 2 ECTS point each. As a rule, subjects with three ECTS have two semester hours per week (SWS), which corresponds to one double hour of 90 minutes. In the first semester, you will have about eleven double hours on your timetable, which means a net attendance of 16.5 hours in lecture halls and seminar rooms. Each hour on campus requires about two hours of additional self-study. The amount of work can vary individually depending on the student.
