Preparatory Year for Master in Information and Communication Science and Technology - STIC1PM

The preparatory year provides students with some basic skills in human sciences to help them sucessfully follow the Master [120] of arts in Information and Communication Science and Technology [120.0] .

On completing this programme, students will have acquired :

• a general training in human sciences;
• an introduction to the different sectors and focuses involved in the science and technology of information and communication;
• a passive or active knowledge of at least one modern language among Dutch, English and German.

Students choose their courses based on their professional objectives and in consultation with the committee president and the academic coordinator.

Depending on the nature of the course and the teaching activities in question, the evaluation will take different forms. Some courses will involve oral and/or written evaluations (held during one of the three exam sessions), whilst the evaluation of seminars will involve more substantial participation on the part of the student as well as assessment of individual course work. Those exams relating to courses on communication skills will evaluate the student's level, i.e. the practical use of the language in relevant situations.
