Premaster - Apply

Our Premaster lays the foundation for a successful start to your Executive Master’s program. Before starting the master’s program, you will take (parts of) the Premaster, depending on your prior education:

• Professional bachelor’s degree (HBO): Completing the Premaster grants you access to our Executive Master’s programs.
• Professional master’s degree (HBO) or academic bachelor’s degree (WO): The Academic Director of the Premaster will assess whether you need to complete (parts of) the Premaster.
• Academic master’s degree (WO): If you hold an academic MSc, you are not required to follow the Premaster. However, you may choose to take (modules from) the Premaster to refresh your academic knowledge. For all other academic master’s degrees, we will provide tailored advice on which modules to follow to help you succeed in your studies.

Important Notes

• Have you been admitted to the full-time Master in Management (MScBA)? A separate preparatory program applies in that case.
• This premaster is designed exclusively as preparation for a TIAS Executive Master’s program. It is not accredited and does not grant access to master’s programs at other universities.
