Our Universe

Admission & Application

You can register for the minor Our Universe via eduXchange. For more information on admission requirements, application procedures, and course details, consult the E-prospectus or contact the coordinator Prof.dr. Serena Viti, viti@strw.leidenuniv.nl.

Limited number of places

Every minor has a limited number of places. These are allocated on a first come, first served basis (with the exception of TU Delft and Erasmus minors with admission requirements*). So apply on time.

Reserved spots for LDE-students

Leiden University, Delft University of Technology and Erasmus University Rotterdam collaborate closely on a range of educational matters, thus making it easy to follow a minor at Leiden University, TU Delft or the Erasmus University. During the application period, Leiden University reserves one third of their minor places for TU Delft and Erasmus University students.

Maximum of one minor

You may only apply for one minor with admission requirements. You may only apply for one TUD/EUR/LDE minor. If you are placed on a waiting list, you may apply for another Leiden minor (without admission requirements). Please note: you can only follow one minor. Are you placed on two waiting lists? Deregister from one of the two minors and apply for a different one. 

For questions about applying, contact 071 – 527 1111 or studielijn@leidenuniv.nl.

Application Process

Steps to take
Students of Leiden University, TU Delft and Erasmus University have to apply via EduXchange.

• Read more information about the application process
• Create an eduID
• Register for your minor via eduXchange

External students (from research universities as well as universities of applied sciences) can apply for just one of the Leiden minors. This is not done through eduXchange, but through the procedure described here.

Application start and deadline

* A selection minor is a minor for which a limited number of places are available. Places are allocated based on a selection procedure. You can check on EduXchange, whether a minor is a selection minor.
An overview with all relevant information about the minors can be found on this website.
