re-accreditation of the Research Master in Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience

Open consultation with panel and presentation of preliminary results

On Friday, 25 October 2019, a panel of academic peers will visit FPN to assess the quality of the Research Master in Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience.

During several sessions throughout the day, the panel will speak to members of the Educational Management Team, the Board of Examiners, and the Educational Programme Committee, as well as Research Master students, teachers, and alumni. At the end of the day, the panel will present its preliminary findings, considerations, and conclusions regarding the quality of the Research Master.

Several RMa students and teachers will participate in programme discussions with the panel on 25 October. Two of these sessions are open to the public. First, there is an open consultation scheduled on Friday, 25 October from 9:30-10:00am, in room A5.772 (UNS40). During the open consultation, you may confidentially discuss your views on the quality of the Research Master. Please note that the open consultation centres on the quality of the RMa programme; personal issues should not be discussed at this time. If you wish to attend the open consultation, please email the visitation panel secretary, Ms. Petra van den Hoorn at vandenHoorn@qanu.nl before Friday, 18 October 2019.

Finally, on Friday, 25 October, the Chair of the visitation panel will present the preliminary findings of the programme visitation in room A0.737 (UNS40) from 5:45-6:00pm. All are welcome to attend this meeting.
