Students design their own tailormade programme for the third semester (30ECTS, free format), based on their chosen personal and professional development goals. The programme should be balanced on PHM Master level having a clear relation with one or more PHM topics like data, network governance, syndemics, payment and behaviour. The process of designing the program for the third semester is guided by the tutors during the 1st year, has to be approved by internal PHM supervisors and topic coordinator . 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 with their personal and professional learning goals. The plan is subject of approval of the Board of Examiners.
