The degree programme at a glance
Even though the Bachelor’s is designed as a full-time degree programme, it allows students to engage in professional activities alongside their studies as it is structured into course blocks, which optionally take place between Monday and Wednesday, including an intensive week in each semester.
Course units take place on Mondays from 8:00 to 16:00 as well as on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 13:45 to 21:00. The timetable is organised within these periods. The number of hours and their position on the timetable can vary from semester to semester. This organisational form allows students to engage in an occupation of up to 30 hours per week.
