In general, the pre-Master’s programme consists of core courses from our Bachelor’s programme, as well as courses in academic skills and methodology.

Curriculum
Dutch Research University students
This pre-Master's programme is for Dutch students who have completed (or are in the process of completing) a Bachelor's programme in a different field of study than Geografie, Planologie en Milieu.

This pre-Master's programme is for students who have completed (or are in the process of completing) a Bachelor's Degree from a university of applied sciences in a field related to Geography and wish to pursue a Master's in Spatial Planning. This pre-Master's gives, together with a completed Bachelor from a university of applied sciences, access to the Master's specialisations of Spatial Planning.
In some cases, when your education background does not grant you direct admission to the Master's programme in Spatial Planning, you can enrol in a pre-Master's programme. A pre-Master’s programme is a one-year programme (60 EC’s) especially designed to bridge the gap between your prior education and our Master’s in Spatial Planning. The pre-Master’s programme grants access to all master’s specialisations of Spatial Planning. The study programme that you have to follow depends on your previous education.
Please note: the programme below is for pre-Master's students who start the programme in 2023-2024. The programmes and schedules are subject to change.
It is not possible for HBO students to be admitted directly to a Master’s programme. First, they must participate in a pre-Master’s programme that will provide them with the basic scientific knowledge and academic skills at the level of a university Bachelor’s programme. Successful, motivated HBO students can take a maximum of five courses in advance from the pre-Master's programme. This will reduce the costs of the pre-Master’s programme to be taken later.
