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 should be an 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 computing session or an intensive language course. The UTT has also adopted a cumulative credit course ("Unité de Valeur") system. A credit course usually represents an average of 130 hours of work, (personal and/or supervised). Generally speaking, one credit course is worth 4 or 6 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System).
