Form Approval Individual Programme
Students are required to hand in a programme proposal to the Board of Examiners, because all research master students have an individual programme focusing on their specialisation track. The form Approval Individual Programme is filled in at the start of the first study year. To fill in this form, students first make an appointment with their coordinator of studies (of their specialisation track), in order to check whether or not the programme meets the requirements of the research master programme. Then, students should discuss their programme with their trackleader. If the trackleader has approved the programme and signed the form, the student sends it to the secretary of the Board of Examiners for final approval.
N.B. Courses for the second year of the programme are sometimes not available yet. In this case, students are required to fill in at least one study year. They fill in the second year in general terms (track elective, tutorial, reading list, thesis, etc.)
Thesis Application Form
In the second year, when students start writing on the master thesis, they should hand in the Thesis Approval form to the Board of Examiners. As soon as students have determined the subject of their thesis, and when they have formulated their research questions, they fill in the Thesis Approval form. On this form they also put the name of the thesis supervisor they have in mind, since the supervisor must also be approved by the board of examiners. More information about the time path for writing a master thesis.
Thesis grading form
Before completing the Research Master thesis, this form should be printed out, filled in and undersigned by both the first and the second thesis supervisor. A copy of the form will be kept in the student's personal file at the secretariate.
Application Form ResMA Exam
ResMA students apply for their graduation by filling in the form Application Form ResMA Exam. They hand in this form – together with a copy of their bachelor’s diploma (students from abroad: passport), and a list of all their grades with a stamp from secretariat De Vrieshof – to the secretariat (De Vrieshof 4, 112).
Deadlines application:
1st of July (date of graduation 31 August) or 1st of December (date of graduation 31 January) of the current academic year.
