Since 2014, the Faculty of Mechanical and Civil Engineering in Kraljevo has different structure of bachelor studies programs of Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering. Nevertheless, the concepts of academic years remained the same at both programs. Each academic year starts on October 1st and ends on September 30th of the following year, and consists of two semesters, Autumn and Spring semester. Each semester consists of 15 weeks of teaching and two examination terms. One semester awards 30 ECTS credits, and within the last semester, student is required to complete a graduation thesis.
