Electives Explanation: Explanation: I think this would be the normal term in US English. There are undergraduate and post graduates electives (and high school electives, of course). Compare these two explanations: "Electives offered during the third and fourth years of medical school allow you to be self-directed and to explore career-enhancing or personally rewarding clinical, research, and other relevant experiences at Mount Sinai and around the world. Clinical electives can be found in the course catalog." https://icahn.mssm.edu/education/students/registrar/elective... "Der Profilierungsbereich ist eine Ergänzung zum Fachstudium und kein eigenständiger Studiengang. Es handelt sich um ein studiengangsübergreifendes Lehrangebot, das den Erwerb insbesondere überfachlicher Kompetenzen aus verschiedenen Bereichen ermöglicht. Indem nicht einzelne Inhalte verpflichtend gemacht werden, sondern den Studierenden eine freie Wahl aus der Breite des Angebots eröffnet wird, besteht für jede Studierende/jeden Studierenden die Möglichkeit, sich ein den eigenen Interessen entsprechendes Studienprogramm zusammenzustellen, um ein individuelles Kompetenzprofil zu entwickeln" https://www.uni-vechta.de/studium/studienorganisation/profil... |

[personal] development Explanation: Duden has 'Profilierung' as "Entwicklung der Fähigkeiten [für einen bestimmten Aufgabenbereich]". Also listed as such here: https://www.jku.at/en/degree-programs/types-of-degree-progra... https://www.bangor.ac.uk/doctoral-school/PersonalDevelopment... https://www.qub.ac.uk/graduate-school/development/postgradua... |
