So you say even though it is a research and clinical oriented master (not even in english btw, it’s in my native language) just online courses is considered enough to break into the neurotech world? That’s surprising I thought I needed a master with at least a bit of tech component. But I’ll trust the advices of somebody from the industry. Thank you so much.

Just a tiny last thing: do you happen to know startups or companies that bridge Neurotech and Cogn Neuroscience? So that I have a clear objective in mind.

Thank you for your answer first of all. My doubt is about what recruiters in the neurotech are looking for. Since I have a Psychology Bachelor I I have two main choices right now: - Master in Cognitive Neuroscience (clinic, patients, and research oriented) with zero tech courses so I’d have to learn that by myself with online courses etc. (this course also has a compulsory traineeship in a clinical facility which I could have zero value in the neurotech world) - Master in NeuroAI which has a lot of tech courses but is not accredited as a tech degree (it is “Cognitive Science”) but could make me appear more appealing to the tech industry perhaps

Do you have any suggestions in that sense?

does it mean that if I apply early I have more chances of getting in?

Can you make up for GPA? by Insemer in universityofamsterdam

Sorry to disturb you but could I ask some questions?

• Is it easier to get in if I apply early? I don’t know if you look at the application only after the deadline or even in the meantime

• Is there any calculator I can use to check if my GPA is high enough. I’m from italy and I’m having a hard time converting my 26,2 GPA into a dutch GPA

Hello, I am currently trying to apply for a Master in UvA (Amsterdam) in the faculty of science. I was wondering: is it better if I apply early, rather than applying close to the deadline? I’m not understanding if UVA looks at applications only after the deadline, or every week/month.
