All Master's Biomedical Sciences students must enrol themselves. You can subscribe to a course that is taught in the context of the BMS programme at the Radboudumc using the pre-registration. Late subscription or unsubscribing is possible until 2 weeks before the start of the course, but only if there are still places available. Registration is done via Osiris, see the instruction manual. In most cases, you will automatically be registered for the first exam when you register for a course. Always check to see whether you are correctly registered for the exam registration deadline. This document offers overviews of courses per period, profile and specialisation. Students who are new at the RU and who do not yet have an active RU account (not yet being able to use Osiris for registration) can use the alternative method with this registration form for external students without RU account.

All 3 ECs courses are scheduled in 4-week periods:
Period | Start date | End date |
| W36 | 1-9-2025 | 28-9-2025 |
| W40 | 29-9-2025 | 26-10-2025 |

| W48 | 24-11-2025 | 21-12-2025 |
| W02 | 5-1-2026 | 1-2-2026 |
| W06 | 2-2-2026 | 1-3-2026 |
| W10 | 2-3-2026 | 29-3-2026 |
a = Monday/Tuesday contact hours, time for self study or exam (final week) on Wednesdays
b = Thursday/Friday contact hours, time for self study on Wednesdays.
Exceptions are courses MED-BMS11 and MED-BMS91. BMS11 is only 1.5 ECTS and relies on self study and contact hours on Wednesdays. MED-BMS11 and MED-BMS91 will be scheduled in an eight week period.
Please keep this study load in account when subscribing for courses. Although it is possible to subscribe for three simultaneous courses (mo/tu, wed and thu/fri), this will result in a study load of approximately 50 hours a week (more than full-time) and is therefore not recommended.
When taking courses in on Mo/Tu (course in slot A) + Thu/Fri (course in slot B) you will have contact hours on those days. You will need the Wednesdays for self-study assignments. If you combine a Wednesday course (slot C) with a course in slot A or B you can do the self-study on the two week days without contact hours.
