Pre-requisites

Like our Summer Programs, these online certificate programs are open to students at masters and undergraduate level, or recent graduates in the early stage of their career. Applicants are therefore expected to be between 18 - 30years of age and to have completed at least one year of undergraduate studies at the time of the program. Young professionals without significant experience in the field are welcome to apply.

Language of Instruction

The program will be taught in English.  Applicants whose native language is not English will be required to submit proof of proficiency in English. Native speakers and C1 speakers will gain maximum benefit from the online program, also due to its interactive nature.

In the case of undergraduate studies that were taught entirely in English, a transcript will be sufficient as documentation.

There is a €50 non-refundable application fee.

The academic fees for this program are €1,450 for all participants, whether students or young professionals.

Scholarships

We are delighted to announce that we have secured additional funding for a limited number of merit-based scholarships for our online programs. These will range up to €500.

You can apply to be considered for a merit-based scholarship by submitting a personal statement with your application, elaborating on why you think you deserve to be awarded such a scholarship.
