· Draft of your Learning Agreement
Proficiency in English is required for all courses. Be aware that your level of English must be advanced (level B2). You must be able to understand, speak, read and write both general and academic English fluently. Exchange students demonstrating proficiency in Dutch can be allowed to enroll in Dutch-taught FaBeR courses, provided they meet the necessary prerequisites and the course can be taken as part of a credit contract.
COURSE INFO
Each course title will link you to its ECTS sheet. Please read this information carefully when deciding on your program. It provides a short description of the content and information on the method of evaluation. Make sure to check the required prior knowledge and order of enrolment to determine whether you will be able to enroll for the course.
IMPORTANT REMARKS
Although this list may be subject to some changes in the transition period between 2 academic years. exchange applicants can use it as a guide for putting together an acceptable Learning Agreement (LA). The list is to be considered final for the upcoming academic year from mid-July of each year. The Learning Agreement can still be changed upon arrival.
Please make sure you check in which semester the course is taught:
First term = Autumn
Second term = Spring
Both terms = course is taught during both semesters, so can only be selected by students who stay for a whole academic year. Exchange students coming on exchange for one semester only, may not enroll in courses that are taught during the whole academic year.
Exchange students are allowed to combine courses from different programmes and specialisations, but need to check the course schedule and exam schedule to avoid overlap. The exam schedule is available at the start of the semester.-
Internships
Clinical internships are not available for incoming exchange students.
Research internships are available; interested students should consult the International Office of the Faculty of Movement and Rehabilitation Sciences to make further arrangements. Students should provide a detailed motivation letter in which they elaborate on the research area(s) in which they are interested, along with a recent curriculum vitae. Enrolment in the research unit of your choosing is not guaranteed. Students may apply for a research internship within the Department of Movement Sciences or the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences.20 ECTS Research Internship - 3 Months
