Masterplanner
At the start of the programme, all admitted students must be registered at Leiden University and in Studielink as an MSc student. Admitted students are invited to group intake sessions with the study adviser Hilde Zwaan. Students with personal circumstances that may need extra attention or facilities (e.g. dyslexia) are advised to make a private appointment, especially when these circumstances may affect their concentration or their ability to study.
More information on how to make an appointment with the study adviser.
The study adviser can support students with personal circumstances that affect their study, give advice about scheduling the programme components and mediate in conflicts.
All students are also supported by a student mentor in groups of about 12 students. The student mentors are all second-year students from our own MSc programmes, so they are very familiar with the programme and the choices their group members have to make. They will aim to make all students feel welcome at Leiden University and involved with the MSc community.
If you have specific questions about course content or which courses to choose to end up with a specific research project, ask the relevant staff member. These are also the people that can help you find external internships in The Netherlands or abroad. The study adviser can help you locate the right staff member.
Students can create an account by using their ULCN account to log in on our website and add their 'masterplan' to their own profile. The student, study coordinator and study adviser can view the masterplan and monitor the student’s progress.
To make a timeframe of your master's components, you can use one of the two documents below (in the excel file you can also keep track of your WORK-2 (WORK to do) activities).
