Broaden and deepen your knowledge and skills
As an honours student you follow extra courses on top of your regular studies during your second and third bachelor year. To broaden your knowledge and skills, you choose from over 40 interdisciplinary courses at other faculties within VU, UvA or AUC. But that’s not all: to deepen your knowledge and skills, you can also take extra courses within your own faculty, extend your bachelor thesis and/or conduct research.
