Transitional arrangements
At the start of each new academic year, the curricula may change. A transitional regulation has been drafted to govern this process. This regulation explains which courses will no longer be offered and/or which courses have undergone major changes that effectively turn them into new courses. It is also possible that courses will be offered in different semesters compared to previous academic years.
2017 - 2018
If you have not yet completed all of the courses from the last academic year, this regulation explains what you should do. If you have any questions about this, please contact your study advisor.
