Other requirements

General requirements

Evidence of proficiency (C1 level) in English is mandatory (TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge). Native speakers and graduates from universities with instruction in English may be exempt upon proof that the curriculum was taught entirely in English.

Other requirements:

Mathematics: statistics and probability. Provide evidence of your ability to follow mathematics courses at a rapid pace - we therefore recommend that you include syllabi of previously completed mathematics courses (even from high school if you didn't study any math related degree).
Computer Science: experience in at least one programming language (preferably object-oriented programming language).
Neuroscience: students will study the human brain and how it relates to cognition, perception and behaviour. The candidates must have a high interest in cognitive neuroscience and have some basics in biology like the components of the cell, the mechanism of protein synthesis.

Student insurance

Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:

Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
Liability
Home contents and baggage
