The four-year Bachelor's programme consists of a core curriculum, choice of a specialization beyond the core curriculum (major) and a free elective (minor). In the first two years, the core curriculum (70% of your study) comprises a mixture of music theory, basic repertoire, auditory/solfège, music history and classes related to your main degree subject, such as chamber music and orchestral training. These classes are provided by (guest) lecturers from the Netherlands and abroad.

1 (one) credit represents 28 study load hours. Students must achieve 60 ECs per year, and are expected to dedicate 1,680 hours per year to their studies. One full academic year comprises 42 weeks. The total study load is therefore 1,680 : 42 = 40 hours per week.
