The Diploma Supplement (DS) is an international
document provided with a diploma to give a detailed description of the
qualifications attained by a candidate.
All graduates from NHH will automatically and free of charge receive a
Diploma, a Transcript of Records and a Diploma Supplement upon graduation.
The Diploma Supplement is issued in English and is only
valid when presented together with the Diploma.
The Diploma Supplement model was developed by the European Commission,
Council of Europe and UNESCO/CEPES. The purpose of the supplement is to provide
sufficient independent data to improve the international ‘transparency’ and fair
academic and professional recognition of qualifications (diplomas, degrees,
certificates etc.). It is designed to provide a description of the nature, level,
context, content and status of the studies that were pursued and successfully
completed by the individual named on the original qualification to which the
supplement is appended. It should be free from any value judgements, equivalence
statements or suggestions about recognition.
More information regarding the Diploma Supplement can be found at NOKUT's webpages.
