Additional information to become enrolled HBO-Minor students stay enrolled at HAN and take up a so called minor enrollment in Studylink You need a minor Admission Statement from me: pcgroot@gmail.com You need a Proof of Payed Tuition Fee from HBO as well as approval for doing a minor elsewhere Premaster students take up a premaster enrollment through Studylink You need an Admission Statement for premaster and this will be given by the Exam Committee => pcgroot@gmail.com You pay around 900 for a standard premaster. You can take 2 years to finish, but there is no restitution and you cannot do any other courses.
Additional information to become enrolled Steps to follow to become enrolled: Register through studylink for a minor or pre-master Informatica (Also for Information science students!) Contact me, pcgroot@gmail.com, (after june 1) for handling the paperwork. I will need to know: - If you are a HBO-minor / pre-master student - Proof about your education (scan of Ba diploma, courses and grades) - Which master program/track you intend to do Appointments with me can be made through the student service desk - Tel: 024-3652200 - Email: studentinfo@science.ru.nl It is best to pick up the paperwork and deliver it at the central student administration in person.
Additional information to become enrolled HBO-minor / pre-master is part of the Bachelor program - Bachelor is called Informatica - Master is called Computing Science or Information Sciences This distinction is important when registering in studylink There is no longer a bachelor Informatiekunde / Information Sciences - therefore you cannot register for a minor / pre-master Informatiekunde - practical solution is to register for minor / pre-master Informatica It is possible to request for exemptions (vrijstellingen). This is very rare for HBO students, but might happen for university students from other disciplines.
Advice The pre-master program is very difficult. Prepare yourself in advance Preferably obtain a VWO-diploma Wiskunde B - Possible options: CCVX, Boswell-beta, NHA Study the reader Rekenen Prepare your courses in advance, some information is on-line: - Wiskundige Structuren: http://www.cs.ru.nl/~hubbers/courses/ws/ - Security: http://www.ru.nl/ds/education/courses/security_2013/ - Discrete Structuren: http://www.cs.ru.nl/~hubbers/courses/ds/ - Calculus & Kansrekenen: http://www.math.ru.nl/~souvi/wiskunde1_07/calculus.pdf http://www.math.ru.nl/~souvi/wiskunde1_07/kans.pdf - Matrixrekenen: http://www.math.ru.nl/~souvi/wiskunde1_07/linalg.pdf - Formeel Denken (2013): http://www.cs.ru.nl/f.wiedijk/courses/fd-2013/
