The panel considers CAST’s profile to be distinct and unique. According to the panel, the curriculum of CAST incorporates all of the programme’s intended learning outcomes in a highly coherent and structured manner. The result is a challenging curriculum that thoroughly prepares students for the various facets of an academic career.
