Customized entry package

For MSc Human Resource Management

Are you a student interested in the MSc Human Resource Management, but do you not meet the requirements for direct entry? If you have studied one of the programmes below at the University of Groningen, you can be offered one of the customized Pre-Master packages:

  1. UG BSc Psychology students
  2. UG BSc Sociology students

Knowledge obtained in the BSc Sociology and BSc Psychology is highly relevant within the field of HRM. As such, you can continue your studies in the MSc HRM after completing some additional courses.

25 ECTS package in FEB or FBSS courses

We ask you to choose and complete courses (totaling 25-ECTS) that you find interesting from a list of HRM-relevant courses. These courses are taught in the Faculty of Economics and Business, as well as in the Faculty of Behavioral and Social Sciences. You are free to choose any of the courses from this list from one of the two faculties, as long as you take all courses at one faculty.

Application process

Application after your non-FEB BSc

You need to apply for enrolment for the pre-MSc of your choice via Studielink and in parallel send your course list with course codes to premsc.feb@rug.nl. Your application will then be processed and you can start the the customized entry package with a PreMSc enrolment. Please read the instructions for your registration in Studielink very carefully and follow the steps precisely. Once you have completed your Bachelor and your customized entry package, please register for the MSc via Studielink. You have to prove your level of mathematics (minimum of A or B) before entering the MSc programme.

Application during your non-FEB BSc

If you want to do the customized entry package during your non-FEB UG BSc, you do not have to apply through Studielink since you can do the courses as electives during your BSc. Put together your planned package and mail it to premsc.feb@rug.nl. After this, you can start right away with the courses. Once you have completed your Bachelor and your customized entry package, please register for the MSc via Studielink and send an email with your final package to premsc.feb rug.nl

Note
