The course application codes and study periods are valid for the academic year 2025/2026. For other academic years, different application codes and study periods may apply

General Courses

For all tracks, compulsory courses + at least one of the optional courses from one of the tracks that the student did not choose must be taken.

*SD2110 is for students who are pursuing the Sound and Vibration track and do not have a basic course in Sound and Vibration in their bachelor's degree.

**SE1025 is mandatory for students who follow the Solid mechanics track and do not have a corresponding course in their bachelor's degree.

***SG2225 must be read instead of SG2214 only by students who have read SG1218 or the equivalent.
