Planning the course of study
On each programme website under “Programme structure” you will find the recommended course of study. Courses for the first semester are chosen in consultation with the contact person. The rest of the study program is planned and confirmed in the master's agreement.
You are yourself responsible to make sure that the teaching and time for examination do not collide. Please be aware that some courses are only being offered during fall/spring semester, or that courses may have prerequisites.You may receive advising from your study advisor or scientific contact person regarding planning your course of study.
