Adjusted programme for student of the Bachelors in Civil Engineering who have not taken the "Biomedical Engineering" option

Students studying for the Bachelors in Civil Engineering who have not chosen the appropriate option:
  • must take all the so-called "prerequisite" courses hereafter, if they were not taken during the 1st cycle. These courses must be taken during the 1st year of the masters and some 1st-year compulsory courses must be rolled over to the 2nd year.
  • must subsequently reduce the number of courses they choose to take in the 2nd year of the masters. If all the "prerequisite" courses must be taken, it will be impossible for them to choose which courses they take.




The adapted programme for these students must first gain be approved by the Jury.
