Frequently asked questions

Compared to the research university master: a more applied approach, starts from a problem in daily practice (less form theory), finds a theory that fits the problem instead of visa versa. Compared to an applied bachelor: designs more general solutions, solves a category of problems with given attributes, solutions are more future-proof.

We don’t work with separate tests, but with integral assessments. We expect you to always be learning, not just at the time of tests. Assessments are determined on the basis of assessments. Important is, that you can show your development at a sufficient level.
