Program Description

This Research Master’s programme will train you to become a researcher who can contribute to resolving the challenges society currently faces, both within and outside academia.

Thorough knowledge of practice is of great value to academic researchers in Education and Child Studies. As a student, you will learn to take the perspective of the academic researcher and pedagogical professional and will therefore be able to connect both perspectives. The programme offers you the possibility to specialise in Education and Child Studies research, and (in combination with specific bachelor courses) graduate with a Dutch professional qualification (NVO-registratie) that allows for further advancement in that field.

Student support

International student advisers

The international student advisers are a good place to go when you need assistance during your stay in the Netherlands. Students in both locations of Leiden University have access to these specialised advisers. In many cases they will be able to provide the information you need, or will refer you to the relevant services. You can consult the advisers on a variety of matters, ranging from financial concerns, settling down issues, academic issues and health insurance to dealing with external housing agents or finding a family doctor.

Student counsellors

We have a number of specialised student counsellors available. They can help in legal and financial matters, but can also assist you in developing study-related skills. The skills package that is offered involves individual counselling and workshops designed to support you in your academic performance. Topics covered include thesis writing, time management, stress management and planning. Additionally, our counsellors are available to help resolve study and personal problems, should this be needed.

Departmental study advisers and coordinators

Each department has its own study advisers/coordinators who can answer questions about matters that are related to the study programme of your choice. You can consult the study adviser/coordinator on issues such as timetables, exam grades, choice of subjects and application for graduation.
