About classes
The teaching is a blend of discussions, practical and theoretical exercises, group work and presentations. We offer supervision for all projects and assignments.
Time consumption
A semester consists of 12-16 weeks of classes and finishes with a short exam period. As a rule, you will need to spend around 10-12 hours of homework and preparation on each course of 7,5 ECTS.
A part-time study must fit into both your working life and your private life. Classes are therefore generally scheduled in the afternoon and evening, and we also offer web based teaching.
