Language modes
This programme is taught in English. However, it uses two language modes: English Only and a Hybrid Language mode. Students can register for a language mode at the beginning of the year. For students of the PID-track, the English Only mode is mandatory.
In the English language mode all components (lectures, assignments, reports) will be in English. In the hybrid language mode, some components of the programme can be done in Dutch, such as the Master’s thesis and Internship. Other components can only be taken in Dutch if this provision is included in the course manual.
