Students start their work for the master's thesis already during the first year. The master's thesis will be written in English. A mandatory oral defense will take place in front of both supervisors (by skype if needed).


Tuition Fees

Tuition fees are paid at the "home" university, for the entire duration of their studies. Administrative fees might be required at the other university.
