Doing two Master's at the same time

It is possible to study two Master's programmes simultaneously at Radboud University. If you wish to do so, there are a number of things to bear in mind.

Enrolment

You must first submit an enrolment application via Studielink. You must do this for both Master’s programmes you wish to enrol in. To do so, follow the application procedure that applies to you.

Contact with student advisor

After applying, you need to contact the student advisors of both Master's programmes. This is important, among other things, for coordinating how you will combine timetables and exam periods. You can find the student advisor's contact details on the programme page for the Master's programme you are interested in.

Tuition fee

If you have not previously obtained a Master's degree and are starting a second Master's programme, you only need to pay the statutory tuition fees for your first Master’s. This means you will not be paying twice.

If you have already obtained a Master’s degree and are starting a new Master’s programme, you will be required to pay the institutional tuition fee. The institutional tuition fee varies by programme. You can find the institutional tuition fee on the programme page for the Master’s programme you are interested in.

Joint programmes

There also exists such a thing as join programmes. These are offered by two of more universities, such as a dual degree Master's or a double degree Master's. These are fixed study programmes and different from doing two separate Master's programmes.
