Enrolling for this plan is also possible having completed the Preparatory Programme Master of Science in Sustainable Land Management.
The model learning track in the interuniversity Master of Science in Sustainable Land Management, track 'Urban Land Engineering' includes:
- Compulsory Courses (80 ECTS - 60 ECTS in MA1 and 20 ECTS in MA2)
- Electives Courses (10 ECTS)
- Master's Thesis (30 ECTS)
Each of the modules has to be successfully completed by the student to obtain the diploma. The student has to respect all registration requirements. For each (sub)module is shown to which year of the full-time model learning track (year 1 or year 2) the courses belong. It is strongly recommended to follow the model learning track (first year 1, then year 2) and to add the courses to the study plan taking into account the level of the course: first introducing courses, then advanced and finally specialised courses.
The course curriculum of the first year of the model learning track in Urban Land Engineering is organised at the Ghent University, whereas all courses of the main subject in Urban Land Engineering of the second year of this track are organised at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
This module includes 65 ECTS of common compulsory general courses.
Common Compulsory General Courses 1st year
These common compulsory courses (60 ECTS) have to be successfully accomplished in the 1ste year of the model learning track (MA1). These common courses are taught at Ghent University.
