Programme changes

Programme changes may take place annually. Some of them are rather limited (e.g. a change of title of a course) and have no further impact on your study path. Others are more drastic (e.g. changes in the number of credits, merging of two courses, creation of a new course...) and can have an impact on the further course of your study programme or year programme.

If a programme change has an impact on your track, you will be informed of it by e-mail at the start of the new academic year.

The changes are only available in Dutch:

Request an individual appointment

The start of the academic year is a very busy period for the study path counselors. We want to help every student as soon as possible, therefore we cannot see everyone individually. Are you part of one of the groups down below and do you need an individual appointment? Then you can request one through this form. It's important to motivate your request well. 

  • You want to switch programmes to a programme in the RC faculty.
  • You're a bachelorstudent with low/insufficient learning credit and want guidance with composing your study path.
  • You're in a difficult or exceptionl situation (such as psychosocial or health issues)

The study path counselors can be reached via the same e-mail address. Behind the scenes, your question will be assigned to the right person. Please mention your student number and study programme for a smooth processing.
