Regulations

Students are subject to a number of rights, duties, guidelines and regulations.

The Code of Conduct provides the framework for behaviour and reflection for employees and students of Utrecht University.

Utrecht University’s Code of Conduct on the Language of Instruction indicates which factors are important in determining the language of instruction, and what parameters are in place to regulate that decision.
