Minor certificates

Successfully completing a minor can be topped of with a minor certificate in English or Dutch.

Please note the following details.

·

A minor certificate is a contribution to a student's academic portfolio to obtain an easier admittance to a master study, an internship, a final (graduation) assignment or a (first) professional position.

·

A minor certificate is not a formal diploma and has no legal status.

·

It is not possible to complete a minor "cum laude".

·

To obtain a minor certificate, a student will have to address a request to his/her own "Bureau Onderwijs­zaken" (BOZ). Please do so only if you are certain that you have successfully completed the minor to save your BOZ unnecessary work.

·

A standard minor certificate is in English. If you wish to receive a minor certificate in Dutch, please inform your BOZ explicitly. Only one minor certificate will be provided (English or Dutch), no exchanges are allowed.

·

Minor certificates can be awarded for institutionalised minors (in Dutch) as well as individual minors.

·

There is no time limit between the completion of your minor and your request for a minor certificate.

·

A possible second (third, ...) extra-curricular minor can also be awarded with a minor certificate.

The above rules are a summary of the formal document "Certificering van minors aan de Universiteit Twente" (in Dutch).
