Frequently Asked Questions

In PBL, you learn in small tutorial groups of 10-12 students. Instead of traditional lectures, you discuss concrete problems and questions, guided by a tutor. This method emphasizes self-directed learning, collaboration, and applying knowledge to real-world situations, developing crucial critical thinking skills.
Many programmes, especially at the Bachelor's level, offer increasing flexibility in the second and third years, allowing you to choose a major, minor, or specialisation track. Master's programmes are often highly specialised from the start, but the university encourages interdisciplinary electives.
If you fail a course, you typically have two resit opportunities. The first resit is usually scheduled shortly after the original exam, and a second resit is offered later in the academic year. It is important to consult your study advisor to understand the implications for your study progress.
