In the panel’s view, the programme’s interdisciplinary approach aligns well with the demand from academia and the labour market for academic professionals who can look beyond the boundaries of their own perspective and problem-setting to find appropriate solutions. After completing the GPM Bachelor’s programme, the vast majority of graduates proceed to a Master’s programme, in most cases within the department. The panel concludes that graduates of the programme are well prepared for a related Master’s in which they can further develop into critical thinkers who contribute to addressing complex societal problems. The Faculty Board would like to thank everyone who contributed to this re-accreditation.
Re-accreditation of GPE
The Bachelor’s programme in Geography, Urban and Regional Planning and the Environment and the Master’s programmes in Human Geography and Spatial Planning have recently received confirmation from the NVAO that their accreditation has been renewed. The review panel commended the programme’s distinctive profile and vision, which are characterised by a strong theoretical foundation, an interdisciplinary approach and a focus on governance.
