We will update our students on the status of the curriculum on a frequent basis. 

What will the program look like during this COVID-19 pandemic?

We are applying a blended methodology in delivering the courses. Blended learning combines online education with traditional classroom teaching. We aim to offer a combination of plenary online lectures and supervised interactive face-to-face sessions in smaller groups. Also flipped classroom methodologies, where students take center stage in preparing materials and professors devote interaction time to explaining the topics in greater depth will be applied.

If students are unable to travel to your university at the beginning of the semester, what alternatives are there?

Students who are unable to travel to the Netherlands in September can contact admissionsftmsc@nyenrode.nl to discuss online alternatives for the first few courses or term.

Is the university making any changes to entry requirements (because of COVID-19)?

Students who are not able to receive their Bachelor or Master diploma before the start of the Pre-Master, but expect to obtain it before the start of the Master (January 2022), can already enroll to the program. Depending on how many Bachelor courses still need to be completed, we will evaluate if starting with the Pre-Master is possible.
