Creating frameworks for teaching

Clear frameworks for organising our teaching will help us make choices about the use of time and resources. We will therefore work on curriculum norms and guidelines, on norms for faculties in terms of teaching load and on reducing the number of elective courses. We will also look at the possibilities for redesigning our academic teaching year calendar.
