Fundamental studies (2 years)

The academic year is divided into 2 semesters of 16 weeks separated by two intersemesters about 4 weeks (February and July - August).

The first semester usually runs from first week of September until the end of January and the second semester from the end of February until the end of June.

The intersemester period is an unique opportunity for students to take part in cultural or educational activities which, due to their nature, cannot take place during a semester : for example a seminar on interculturality, a discovery trip to other countries or continents or an intensive language course.

Students can apply for an entry at any level during the 5 year degree under the condition that they show a suitable academic background.
The usual admission qualification procedure is a high school degree for an entry at year 1 and a bachelor's degree for entry at year 4.

UTC accepts students both in the Fall semester (September) and Spring semester (February). Students are admitted based on qualifications and school record as well as an individual interview, wich take place abroad for international students.
