You can apply for a course exemption if you have successfully completed a comparable course in another Bachelor’s or Master’s program. A request for such exemption must be submitted via the request form to the Examination Board for the joint degree Bachelor’s program Data Science and the Master’s program Data Science and Entrepreneurship of the Eindhoven University of Technology and Tilburg University via examencommissie.jads@tilburguniversity.edu. Included in this request you must also provide sufficient evidence, such as:
 
·         the results of the course(s) from which the exemption is being sought (transcript of records);
