As members of the Netherlands Research School in Philosophy (OZSW) or the National Research School in Classical Studies (OIKOS), Research Master's students complete seminars selected from a course list coordinated by the research schools. These are either (1) designated seminars offered by various Dutch universities (including Utrecht)  or (2) one of the research school's special offerings (e.g. the annual OZSW Winter School for Research Master's students).(1) In the case of regularly offered courses, students register for the selected course at the host university (using that university's course code and title). The results for that course (including course title and grade) are then subsequently registered as Research School Seminar Year 1 (OFRM14001) or Research School Seminar Year 2 (OFRM14002).  (For more detailed instructions, see the RMA Philosophy Handbook.) (2) In the case of special Research School offerings, credit and grades will be registered directly as Research School Seminar Year 1 (OFRM14001) or Research School Seminar Year 2 (OFRM14002), on the basis of a report provided to the RMA Coordinator by the coordinator of the research school event. Credits for the seminar varies, but the number of credits for the two Research School Seminars must add up to at least 10 ECTS. Students who are abroad in their second year are excused from the second year requirement.

Students who complete 30 EC at a university abroad are required to earn a minimum of 5 EC (rather than the standard requirement of 10 EC) that meet the conditions for the Research School Seminar.
