Double Degree Structure
If you apply through LSM, your home university will be the LSM, you will therefore spend your first year at LSM and your second year at NHH as your host university.
Dual Specialization: Supply Chain & Environment
This programme is specifically structured to combine the core strengths of both institutions, creating experts ready to tackle global challenges.
| Institution | Expertise/Major | Focus Area |
| LSM (UCLouvain) | Supply Chain Management | Logistics and Process Efficiency |
| NHH | Energy, Natural Resources, and Environment | Sustainability and Environmental Issues |
The combined specialization offers added value in Supply Chain and Environment. While we encourage students to follow this proven combination, you may submit a specific project proposal for a different major combination to the Educational Advisor for review.
Integrated Master's Thesis Requirements
The Double Degree requires the completion of one single Master's thesis to satisfy the requirements of both universities.
Supervision: You must secure two professors: one from LSM and one from NHH. One acts as the main supervisor, and the other as the second examiner (reader).
Procedure: The thesis is written in English. Students typically begin preparatory work during the first year.
Defense: A mandatory oral defense is required. This takes place virtually (via videoconference) in the presence of at least two professors.
