[] Recognition of Prior Learning
Students enrolled in DU might be exempted from certain courses within the framework of certain regulations. A student can be exempted from a certain course provided related course content previously received from another institution complies with that of DU, which is subject to approval and verification by the Board of faculty/graduate school/school.
Recognition of Education Abroad
DU recognises academic terms and courses studied by a student that has been involved in an exchange programme for one or two terms at the universities with which a partnership was established.
Students that are selected to avail themselves of Student Mobility for Studies under ERASMUS are obliged to draw up an education agreement with relevant ERASMUS Unit Coordination prior to the mobility term. The education agreement demonstrates the courses to be studied at the partner university the student intends to go, as well as appropriate ECTS credits.
In addition to this, students shall be asked to issue a Recognition Sheet, which refers to the equivalent of foreign courses in DU, so that the credit transfer is planned and approved.
At the end of the exchange term, the courses studied abroad are recorded and demonstrated in the transcript, together with the original course codes and names and ECTS credits. Pursuant to ERASMUS Programme and Collaboration Agreements concluded thereunto, official transcripts will quote, an abbreviation signal of ET, European Transfer, for the courses studied abroad.

[] Professional Profile of Graduates
Forest industry engineers direct works requirements for establishment, design and operation treated forest products factories. They buy forest products on behalf employees, identify standards for forest products check product quality, stuff for log convert to timber, cutting , peeling and covering, coordinate employs who works in plate production factories. In addition, forest industry engineers can be convert raw material that forest engineers produced to deposit to meet consumers need and desires. To increase wood finished and semi finished products efficiency, developing their using properties, researching wood anatomical structure, physical and mechanical properties, and chemical fibrous structure, drying and drying properties. On the basis of this research, they can stuff converting the wood material to furniture, paper, lumber and many more finished or semi finished wood material.
