Preparatory programme

For the Master in Financial Business Engineering

The preparatory (pre-master) programme for the Master in Business Engineering: Financial Engineering consists of a maximum of 57 ECTS-credits. Students may receive exemptions in the preparatory programme based on the obtained credits in their prior study programme(s). All possible exemptions will be assessed case per case by the board of admissions upon admission approval. Depending on the load of the preparatory programme, students may be allowed to combine the preparatory programme with certain courses of the master.

Students cannot directly apply for a preparatory programme. Students apply for the master's programme and the board of admissions will then put together a customised preparatory programme.
