The following is a summary of the most important aspects of our code of conduct that forms the basis for the success of the Asian Studies Department: 

Openness for new knowledge: Students are responsible for their own personal and professional development. They make use of the growth opportunities and freedoms available at our university - and our faculty provides students with the appropriate learning formats, projects and a supportive learning environment.

Taking advantage of advising opportunities: Students make use of the individual advising opportunities available in the department. All faculty members have weekly office hours. Students can also set up individual advising and coaching appointments.

Recognizing networking opportunities: Students play an active role in their courses and seminars, and view themselves as equally responsible for their own academic training: They take part in mandatory and elective courses, actively prepare for and review course content, take advantage of networking opportunities, and work responsibly in teams and interactive formats.
