Extended Master Sociology
Sociology Master's students can also apply for the extended master, which adds a junior traineeship of 30 ECTS (half a year) to the regular master's program. Through a junior traineeship at a partner organization, the extended master provides relevant working experience and learning opportunities to enhance your professional and academic skills.
Extend your master with a junior traineeship
- The workload of the junior traineeship is equivalent to 30 ECTS.
- During your traineeship, 50% of your time will be dedicated to existing (research) projects; you will dedicate the other 50% of the time to your research and writing your master’s thesis.
- The subject of your master's thesis will be preferably, but not necessarily, connected to your junior traineeship.
Application and admission
You can only apply for the extended master once you’ve started the master's program in Sociology. If you are interested, you must contact your program coordinator for information.
- At the start of the master’s program in Sociology, there will be an information meeting organized for students who are interested in the extended master Sociology. In this meeting you’ll be informed on the application procedure, application deadline, possible partner organizations, and the structure of the program and traineeship.
