Searching for interesting courses?
|
Are last-minute looking for interesting courses outside your study programme? In the Course Planner you can look for courses by theme. The humanities courses have not yet been thematized, but other faculties may offer courses that match your studies.
You can also opt for a minor that starts in block 3 or 4. In case you decide to register for a minor, do not forget to sign up for all the courses that are part of that minor too!

On Monday 5 December, classes will not be taught after 17.00, unless your lecturer explicitly communicates that teaching will continue as normal.
At the Faculty of Humanities, we have 1 extra week of Christmas holidays. So in the week of 9-13 January, there will be no teaching activities, tests, resits nor deadlines. Your lecturer may, however, ask you to prepare something in advance. If you are taking courses at another faculty, you are out of luck: lectures at other faculties than Humanities will start on 9 January.
All our teaching is on location. If you cannot come to lectures for a longer period of time, please contact your study advisor.

But how do you make policy? How do you give voice to your ideals? In this edition of Your Perspective, Humanities alumni talk about their work in politics and policy-making.

Useful tips: Keeping track of your courses in Blackboard
|
In Blackboard, you can very easily keep track of all your courses via My Courses > Settings > Group by Term.
You can then collapse and unfold teaching periods with the grey triangles. If you no longer want to see a certain course period, you can uncheck it by clicking the settings wheel again and simply uncheck the course period.
