Combined Students Information

Students studying in combined form will only have classes once every two weeks (or less often if there are holidays). In between, students are expected to work on their own (mainly through online courses) to make up for the lack of contact hours.

Students are expected to do as much work and to learn as much information as students who study in daily form, even though they have half of the contact hours. Attendance at classes is not compulsory, but missing a class is not an excuse for not knowing the information discussed during that class.

Selective courses in this study programme are offered in the form of block courses (starting with the code AJ5). They are usually scheduled on Saturdays, once at the very beginning and once at the very end of the semester. Each time, the class will take place over 5 hours – usually either from 8 – 13 or from 14 – 19. This means that students can sign up for two of these classes every semester.
