Pre-Master's programme

Study programme

Your individual study programme is printed on the provisional admission letter that you have received from your Master’s programme. The courses are all part of the normal Bachelor’s curriculum, so you will be attending classes with first-, second- and third-year Bachelor’s students. The Humanities Student Information Desk will register you for all courses. 

The course descriptions (including study materials) are available in the Course Catalogue. Your class schedule is posted on MyTimetable. The lectures will be held in several different locations.
 

Practical information

The History Bachelor’s website provides information about:

• Academic year calendar
• Regulations and procedures (incl. calling in sick, fraud and plagiarism, final grades, and complaints, objections and appeals)
• Study places and -materials
• IT facilities (incl. Blackboard, UU Gmail and printing)

Basic knowledge of information and computer technology is a prerequisite for the programme and will be tested. ICT modules have been developed to help you train these skills.

Through the course descriptions, course handbook and Blackboard, you will be informed about specific rules that apply to the course: planning, attendance, excursions, examinations and resits, etc.
