Notes to answerer
Asker: not sure whether i trust Peter van Ness English... he was probably having a hard as well trying to find the proper term for deelonderzoek when writing his cv :)


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  DutchConnection: A part of a project can be anything; a subproject has a svery specific meaning. -> But those four parts could consist of a number of things, not necessarily subprojects.
1 hr
  -> a project with 4 parts is specific.
agree  Michael Beijer: I agree with Writeaway. By translating this as, "sub-projects" (or "sub-studies"), you might actually be saying too much, so to speak.
