- Option 3: the student completes the CIVICA course at the partner university, participates in the European Week and prepares a project (showcase assignment).
The candidate chooses only one of the 3 options during the recruitment process.
Upon completion of the CIVICA Engage Track the student receives a certificate.

NOTE: carrying out the CIVICA Engage Track takes place as part of participation in an exchange abroad. This means that a student selected for the path is subject to all rules regarding regular exchange + additionally the requirements of the CIVICA Engage Track. In accordance with the mobility procedure, the minimum number of ECTS credits per semester on exchange is 30 ECTS (if the student has a surplus of ECTS from previous semesters of studies - not less than 24 ECTS). Therefore, it is in this ECTS pool that the CIVICA Engage course carried out on the exchange should be completed. The remaining credits can be earned for more than one Engage course or for other activities, according to the general rules.
