What can also help you during your studies:
-
When you follow a flexible learning path, you’re taking courses from multiple programmes and you have to register for the programme stages in which you follow most of your credits. Thus, the course schedule of most (compulsory) subjects is fixed. The course units of another programme stage you want to follow, have to be organized around this basic course schedule.
You can contact the learning path coach(es) of your degree programme for more help with the composition of a learning path that suits your personal profile.
Be careful when composing your personal course schedule and take in account the advice that your learning path coach(es) give(s) you. You need to make sure you take the same course with the same class group and the same teacher at all times.
