What is a Master's degree?

A master's program, also called a master's degree, is an independent 2-year supplementary education to the 3-year bachelor's degree. A master's program corresponds to 120 ECTS credits.

While a bachelor's degree offers a range of foundational subjects, a master's degree provides you with a higher degree of specialization, where you expand your knowledge and skills from the bachelor's program. A master's program typically combines a number of compulsory courses, elective courses, and notably a final thesis.

With the thesis, you have the opportunity to delve deeply into a self-chosen topic, demonstrating your ability to apply the knowledge you have gained throughout your education.
