Key facts

The programme is based on online lectures and a combination of online, hybrid and on-site workshops.
Online lectures are pre-recorded, and students are expected to prepare for the workshops by listening to the lectures – as often as they like -and by reading the well-defined compendium for each workshop.
A typical course consists of 9 workshops, each lasting 4 hours. Two seminars are hybrid, three are on-site, and four are online.
Attendance in the workshops is mandatory. For the hybrid seminars, typically at the beginning of a semester, students can attend them online or on-site. The online seminars take place every other week during the semester. Three mandatory on-site workshops are organised by the end of each semester, lasting for five whole workdays each.
