Academic and Exam Administration
Starting a degree program at a new university or in a different Faculty can raise many questions at first. However, we won’t leave you to figure it out on your own—we’ve put together an overview with the basic information you need to organize your minor.
During your minor program, you will be required to take various exams, which involve certain formalities. To ensure you don’t overlook anything, we have compiled an overview of the most important requirements and deadlines related to exams.
Before you begin your minor, we recommend that you watch our video information session on the organization of coursework and exams.
