Dutch-taught courses

The following Dutch-taught courses are also open to Lingua Receptiva students (“luistertaal”). Lingua Receptiva means that students who have sufficient receptive knowledge of Dutch to be able to read texts and follow lectures, but whose speaking and writing skills in Dutch might not be good enough, are given the opportunity to do the assignments, presentations, (oral) exams and assignments in English. So for example, in case of an exam the questions are in Dutch but you may answer them in English. If you are interested and think you have sufficient receptive skills, please contact the coordinator of that course. Click here for a receptive skills test Dutch.
