Programme content


The open curriculum of UCV allows you to design your own curriculum, to a large extent. 

Core
The academic core comprises a set of modules which UCV considers important for any student who wishes to peruse an academic degree in this field. All students are required to take the following four courses: Modelling Nature, Philosophy of Science, Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Food, Nutrition, & Health.

Concentration
A concentration is a collection of related academic disciplines, in which courses are categorised. At UCV you can chose between the concentrations Social Sciences and Sciences. The Social Sciences concentration entails disciplines like Law, Psychology and Economics, whereas the Sciences concentration contains courses like Biology, Chemistry and Computer Science. You will choose one of these concentrations to focus on throughout your studies. Within this concentration you are free to make any combination you think is sensible for your future. The major part of your course load will come from this concentration.To give an example, a student who is interested in convincing people to eat more healthily may choose to take courses in Law, Psychology, and Public Policy. A student who is interested in improving nutritional value of food may choose courses in Biology and Chemistry.
