12 New Program Structure (From Fall 2015 on) All courses will be quarter courses. In principle, all students will go abroad for an international semester (unless already done at BSc or financial exceptions). / School of Industrial Engineering PAGE 12

13 New Program Structure (From Fall 2015 on) We define tracks, that consist of: (i) Courses that belong together; (ii) Master thesis subjects for which those courses are relevant. Students will be coupled to mentors in two steps: Before the end of the first quarter, a student will be coupled to a track. Before the end of the second quarter, a student will be coupled to a mentor. / School of Industrial Engineering PAGE 13

14 New Program Structure (From Fall 2015 on) Courses will fall into four categories: Core courses Track core courses Specialization electives Free electives / School of Industrial Engineering PAGE 14
