Course units and programme of study

The list of course units in the Programme of Study represents the set of training activities that can be envisaged for each of the years of which the course of study consists and changes according to the year in which the student enrolls. Free or restricted-choice' subjects are optional learning activities that students may include in their Programme of Study according to the choice criteria specified on this page; the remaining course units are compulsory for all students.
The Programme of Study must be submitted online by the student for each year using the ESSE3 system (see dedicated section).
Students are allowed to submit their own Programme of Study with options other than those presented on this page (and available in ESSE3), as long as it is consistent with achieving the course's educational objectives. In that case, the Programme of Study must be submitted to the Course Council for approval.
