Description

The master Applied Earth Sciences (AES) is a two-year MSc programme. In the first year, you build core competencies through the AES programme core and faculty module on Modelling, Uncertainty and Data for Engineers (MUDE). You also choose your discipline, gaining specialised knowledge in a particular field. Finally, you gain hands on experience by applying the knowledge you are learning in case studies and in the field. In the second year, you have even more choice. You choose between in-depth or free electives, a multi- or interdisciplinary project in the Netherlands or abroad, and cross-over modules. This prepares you to make a well-informed decision for a master’s thesis research topic.
