The study process is organised into two parallel study activities: project work and courses.

The two forms of study, project work and course participation, each constitute 50% of the basic studies.

The students meet a new culture that is significantly different than the one they are familiar with from their second level education or from another third level education. The difference lies particularly in the project work (and to a lesser degree in the courses) and consists of, among other things, a high degree of participant-management, problem orientation and exemplification.
