Study guidance
At the beginning of the programme you choose a mentor. The mentor is your personal coach throughout the complete MSc programme, and is usually the supervisor of your research project if you carry it out in the LIC. An online master planner helps you put together your programme and can be used for monitoring your progress by your mentor and the study adviser. During your MSc programme you will join one of the research groups and receive the necessary guidance to become an independent researcher. Most students spend their first year on courses and their second year on their research project or projects.
