Course registration and withdrawal

In order to attend classes, submit assignments and take exams, you must be registered for a course in the Study Planner. It is your responsibility to ensure that your course registration is correct and completed within the applicable registration and withdrawal deadlines. Read about how to register and withdraw from courses here.

How to register for courses

You register for courses via your Study Planner Study Planner (see guide for the Study Planner)

As new BEng and BSc student you are automatically registered for courses in the first teaching period (13-week period) in the first semester of your study programme. After that you must register for all other courses in the Study Planner.

Remember that you must complete your entire study plan to register for courses.
You can always make changes later on.

Registration period and deadlines

You register for one semester at a time. For each 13-week period and each 3-week period, there is a registration period and a post-registration period.  .

 

How to sign up for special courses, final projects and internship

You cannot register for final projects, internships, or special courses yourself. Your supervisor or internship supervisor register the activity in the Project Reporting System. Once the registration is approved you will receive an email in your study email. Once a project is finally approved, it will appear in the Study Planner as an exam registration during the exam period and not as a course registration during the teaching period.
