Previous studies, max. 12 points
Studies supportive to Food Processing Technology
Max. 8 points
Previous relevant studies related to Food Processing Technology will be evaluated.
These studies can be in Chemistry, Food Chemistry, Chemical Engineering or Food Technology. These studies are typically completed as part of a degree in Chemistry, Chemical Process Engineering, Food Chemistry, Food Technology or closely related.
- 24-39 ECTS credits = 2 points
- 40-54 ECTS credits = 4 points
- 55-69 ECTS credits = 6 points
- 70- ECTS credits = 8 points
Studies in Mathematics and Physics
Max. 4 points
- 20-39 ECTS credits = 2 points
- 40- ECTS credits = 4 points
Minimum requirements for the completed studies
What to do if there are no credits available for the completed courses?
Academic Success, max. 5 points
Arithmetic GPA for the degree you must apply with:
- 2.50-2.99 = 1 point
- 3.00-3.99 = 3 points
- 4.00-5.00 = 5 points
The arithmetic GPA evaluated in the LUT selection process is
- an arithmetic average of grades for all individual courses included in the degree you have to apply with that
- are completed at the time of applying
- have been evaluated on a numeric grading scale
- are listed on the official Transcript of Records
Only in cases where some individual courses are combined into a bigger module on the Transcript of Records including only one total grade for all the courses included in the module and with no individual evaluation for the included courses available, the combined total grade will be included in the arithmetic GPA.
Grade for the Final Thesis is included in the arithmetic GPA while failed grades are excluded from it.
Courses without a related study unit such as ECTS credit, credit, credit hour etc. are excluded from the arithmetic GPA even if the course having been evaluated on a numeric grading scale.
Courses completed outside the degree as well as courses included in the degree that have been credited or compensated are excluded from the arithmetic GPA unless the degree-awarding university having graded them on a numeric grading scale.
All the courses included in the arithmetic GPA must be listed on the official Transcript of Records for the degree you must be applying with.
The arithmetic GPA will be first checked and verified by LUT University and in case of the original grading scale not having been on a scale of 1.00 - 5.00, the arithmetic GPA will be converted by LUT University on this scale during the evaluation process. Finally, the arithmetic GPA with two decimals will be evaluated.
Work Experience, max. 3 points
Work experience related to the field of study and supportive to the programme will be given points as follows:
- Less than 1 year = 0 points
- 1 - 3 years = 1 point
- 3 - 5 years = 2 points
- 5 years or more = 3 points
Related work experience completed by the end of the application period and proven with Certificate/s of Employment uploaded to your application form will be evaluated.
Remember to indicate the duration for all the listed individual work experiences as well as the total duration for all the work experience listed.
Remember to also specify whether the work experience was either a full-time or a part-time work and provide the percentage of working time compered to a full time job individually for each work experience.
When evaluating work experience, for example, 2 years of part-time (50%) work experience is equivalent to one year of full-time (100%) work experience.
