When I started as the director of the 2 year master Medical Psychology, Tilburg University, Netherlands, 60 students (n=30 in year 1 and n=30 in year 2) had been admitted to the master of Medical Psychology. Together with the team, I have increased this number to n=130 (65 students in each year), with students evaluations remaining highly positive. I have also developed and coordinated a new course named: Advanced scientific skills for the Medical Psychologist and coordinated the master theses of the master Medical Psychology.
