Course descriptions and dates

Academic curriculum with block structure

The 15 courses in the Academic Curriculum are divided into four blocks. During these blocks, course activity is high and a large portion of the fellow's time will be spent on preparation, course attendance, and assignments. Outside of the blocks, the fellow will focus on their research project and apply the knowledge, skills and network they have acquired through the courses.

Course activity is high in the first year of the programme, with two-thirds of the courses scheduled from Summer to Spring. Applicants should take this into account when designing their research project.

The course dates listed below refer to the 15 courses in the 2025-2027 Academic Curriculum (commencing in September 2025). These dates are provisional and subject to change. Finalised course dates will be communicated to fellows at the start of their fellowship.
