Mathematics Summer Course

Faculty of Economics and Business

Every year in August we offer an intensive five day mathematics summer course for prospective students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, who wish to meet the math entry requirements for their study program.

The course consists of plenary lectures that are offered online, after which tutorials are held in smaller groups. You can opt to take part in these tutorials on campus or online. During the tutorials, you have time to solve problems by yourself and there is a teacher available to help you with all problems you encounter. The general lectures focus on the theory and are given in English. However, during the tutorials it is also possible to ask questions in Dutch.
