Program Curriculum
Course Structure
- ["Students entering the programme should have already successfully completed at least a 4-year university programme. Most have already obtained a Master\'s degree or completed an equivalent 4-year degree. As such, we expect that entering students already possess the general skills and attitudes of a Master\'s student.", \'Students should already be able to formulate research goals, determine trajectories that achieve these goals, collect and select information relevant to achieving research goals and interpret collected information on the basis of a critical research attitude. The AI programme will further develop these skills within the specific scientific context of artificial intelligence.\']
