Master's Thesis
Students who have to acquire no more than 72 ECTS to obtain their degree at the beginning of the academic year, choose option A.
Students who still have to acquire more than 72 ECTS to obtain their degree at the beginning of the academic year, but who fulfill the prerequisites by the start of the second semester (i.e. having to acquire no more than 72 ECTS), can exceptionally start with part I of the master’s thesis in February if they find a master’s thesis topic from the limited list of topics that allow a February start. In that case, they choose option B.5 ECTS Research Project Planning I0U41A staff- B.Somers (coordinator)

Minor Segment
Students take one minor, being either a "Reorientation Minor", a "Minor" or a "Thematic Minor", consisting of ± 20 ECTS (with 17 ECTS as an absolute minimum). The Dutch minors can only be chosen by students with a very good command of the Dutch language (both spoken and written).
-
Reorientation Minor
-
Reorientation Minor
Students who were admitted to their master’s programme on the condition of taking a reorientation minor, or students who took a different bachelor’s option than their master’s programme, are requested to contact the study track advisor (e-mail) about the composition of their reorientation minor.
-
-
Minor
The minor consists of ± 20 ECTS English taught courses from one of the majors in the list below. The composition of the minor has to be approved by the programme chair (a list of the chair of each master’s programme can be found on Toledo). ATTENTION: some of the mentioned minors do not contain 20 ECTS courses taught in English.
