Bus/Financial - Education / Pedagogy / Study course description | | German term or phrase: Anpassungsleistungen | My Petroleum Engineering study course again:
Voraussetzung für die Zulassung ist der Bachelor-Abschluss Energie und Rohstoffe der TU Clausthal oder der vergleichbare Abschluss einer anderen wissenschaftlichen Hochschule oder Fachhochschule in Petroleum Engineering. Die Vergleichbarkeit wird vom Prüfungsausschuss festgestellt, der ggf. notwendige Anpassungsleistungen bestimmt.
Haven't a clue what is meant by "Anpassungsleistungen" - any ideas anyone?
|
| | | (course) credit equivalents or transfer credits | Explanation:
Either of the above two options appear appropriate in this case. The overriding notion is that coursework completed at one institution (Leistungen) can be applied toward a degree at another (Anpassung).

Explanation:
I think they mean coursed that need to be taken in order to receive the same or a similar degree / in order to be able to continue in a graduate program (?) in a different country / system.
In American I'd say required credits or something like that.

I like qualifications
I think it's more than just adjustments. The applicant may have to jump through some additional hoops before being immatriculated
