Master of Arts in Oriental Languages and Cultures (India)
Our (two-year) Master’s programme studies Oriental languages and cultures in four sub-areas: China, India, Japan and the Middle East. As in the Bachelor’s programme, students take on two language variants from your choice of sub-areas, and a set of course units focusing on culture and academic methodology.
Open Days
Each spring there is a Graduation Fair. It consists of a job fair (with more than 200 different companies) and a postgrad/master fair.
For some programmes, there is a specific Open Day. If this is the case, you will find the date here (at the latest Feb 15th).

Flexible trajectories
Flexible trajectories refers to alternative ways of following our courses. It might mean that a course can be spread in time as to allow the combination of work and studying, or that students with special needs get the support they need to allow a successful study career.
