Course registration
Erasmus MC Graduate School courses are offered via the EUR course catalogue. More information about a course can be found by clicking on the name of the course under the course description. In order to register for a course, a valid student ERNAaccount is needed. It is not possible to register with an Erasmus MC work account. A student ERNA account can be created when enrolling for a course for the first time, as shown in the picture below.
Please read how to reactivate an old ERNA account that has been deactivated below. Please do not create a new ERNA ID if you already have one!
Please note the following:
Academic year and course dates.
Erasmus MC Graduate School works with an academic calendarthat run from August until July. (e.g., when acourse starts in May 2023, it belongs to the academic year ‘2022’). Course dates will be either mentioned in the course description or be available in the course description via a link. The dates mentioned under ‘enrolment period’ only refer to the Academic year itself and not the course dates.
Re-activate student ERNA account
If you have an old ERNA account or if your current ERNA account has been deactivated, please contact graduateschool@erasmusmc.nl to reactivate your account.
Please also note that a PhD candidate is not registered as a full-time student. For this reason, we cannot extend the ERNA account for longer a period of time and why the ERNA account must be reactivated every 3-6 months. We understand that this is frustrating and we are looking for a solution to solve this. We kindly ask that you follow the abovementioned steps. We apologize for the inconvenience.
