List of questions related to the subjects of the entrance examination
Evaluation of the admission procedure results
The admission of a candidate for master studies is decided by the Dean of FEI STU based on the recommendation of the admission board.
The evaluation of the admission procedure and the recommendation of applicants for admission to study in the relevant master study programme shall be prepared by the admission board appointed by the Dean of the FEI STU.
The ranking of candidates will be based on the total number of points earned by the individual candidates, calculated as the sum of the points scored for:
- entrance examination (maximum of 60 points)
- results of previous higher education (maximum of 40 points) - based on the weighted average of study (WAS) given in the transcript of completed courses or calculated on the basis of the submitted documents, where the points for the WAS (PWAS) are calculated as follows:
a) if WAS <3.0, then PWAS = 60-20*WAS,
b) if WAS ≥ 3.0, then PWAS = 0.
- further activities beyond previous university studies - participation in student scientific conferences or student professional event (contest), or a paper / article published in conference proceedings or journal - a candidate can earn 10 points if he / she can reliably demonstrate any of these activities.
The minimum total number of points required for admission to master studies is 60 points, of which at least 30 points must be earned for the entrance examination.
The admission of a candidate for master studies is decided by the Dean of FEI STU based on the recommendation of the admission board.
If more applicants than planned meet the admission criteria for the relevant study programme, then those applicants who have demonstrated the highest level of ability to study shall be preferred. The order of admitted students is established on the basis of the points achieved for the entrance examination, the assessment of the results of previous university studies and activities beyond the completed previous university studies.
If less than the minimum number of candidates meet the admission criteria for the study programme, the Dean may decide not to open the study programme. In this case, candidates who have fulfilled the conditions for admission to the study programme in question will be offered another study programme in which there are still vacancies.
Decision on the outcome of the admission procedure will be delivered to the applicant in his own hands.
