Description
Students design their own tailormade programme for the second year track (30ECTS, free format), as long as it is a balanced programme which fits in one of the four tracks. The process of designing the program for the second year track is guided by the tutors and coordinators of the tracks, and during two orientation weeks. Students may choose to do a (professional or research) internship and/or follow courses, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Importantly the students link their chosen activities during the track with their personal and professional learning goals. The plan is subject of approval of the Examination Board.
