Programme of B1

The Bachelor's programme is comprised of three years of 60 credits (ec). Each year is divided into four periods (quarters) of 15 ec.

In the first year most courses that are offered, provide the molecular basis for the Bachelor's programme. The first year, however, also serves as a filter: if you are able to pass all first year courses, you should be able to handle the rest of the programme as well. If you fail to pass at least 39 ec in the first year, you cannot continue the programme (See the appropriate section on Binding Study Advice in this prospectus).

The first-year courses for each period are listed below, with the study load shown in parentheses (EC). The first year has a fully mandatory curriculum. The Chemistry and Molecular Life Sciences programmes in the first year overlap for 85%, the Science programme deviates a bit more.

If you switch from MLS to Science after the first year, you need to take the courses NWI-MOL122 Chemical Analysis 2, NWI-MOL132 Vector Calculus, NWI-MOL133 Mechanics and NWI-MOL134 Electricity and Magnetism (or courses with corresponding content) elsewhere in your Bachelor's programme. Switching from MLS to Chemistry requires that you take up the following courses in your Bachelor's programme: NWI-MOL122 Chemical Analysis 2 and NWI-MOL136 Physical Chemistry 2.

If you switch from Chemistry to MLS after the first year, you can do so without without taking extra courses. If you have finished the first year of Science and want to transfer to MLS, you need to take NWI-MOL139 Sustainable Chemistry.
