Faculty and study programme regulations

At faculty and study programme level there are various regulations in place to ensure that everything runs as it should. For example, there are thesis and faculty regulations, as well as rules and guidelines on assessments, exams, degree classifications and plagiarism.

As a student, the most important regulations you will come across in terms of your education are your study programme's ‘Course and Examination Regulations’ (known as OER in Dutch).

Faculty complaints procedure

Do you have a suggestion, comment or a complaint? There are several points of contact for you. The complaint coordinator of the Faculty of Medicine/LUMC uses the faculty complaints procedure (available in Dutch only). Please send your comments, suggestions, problems or complaints by email to the LUMC Education Service Desk.

Confidentiality and protocols

As a student, you will use the facilities of the LUMC. Studying and working in an Academic Hospital requires that you conform to the in-house rules and regulations. 

Since you may see confidential information, it is required to sign a confidentiality agreement to respect the privacy of the patients and protect intellectual property as well as other matters. This agreement will be provided to you on the first day.
