Teaching method
The teaching strategy takes its inspiration from the idea of ‘taking responsibility for one’s own learning’. In the core subjects, students have a choice between a series of activities in human sciences and may choose 11 credits freely from theBiochemistry and Molecular and Cell Biology programme or from that of Biology of Organisms and Ecology. In each option course there are 10 credits (Biochemistry and Molecular and Cell Biology) or 14 credits (Biology of Organisms and Ecology) to focus training on a total of eight different areas of biology. Learning is for the most part centred on individual work (e.g. reading, consultation of databases and bibliographic references, field and laboratory work).
Students will mainly be assessed on the basis of individual work (e.g. reading, consultation of databases and bibliographic references, writing monographs and reports, presentation of seminars, dissertation and field work). As far as possible, there will be continuous assessment, including regular ‘open book examinations’. Certain activities will not be given a precise mark but will be officially certified.
