In Maastricht…

…everything revolves around you, the student. You learn in small groups, receive special attention for your talents and academic attitude, and enjoy personal contact with the academic staff.

…you learn on the basis of challenging problems and objectives. You get to grips with scientific issues, allowing you to grasp the theory and apply your understanding of a subject to a wide range of topics. You are trained in skills such as presenting, debating, writing and leading discussions. This makes studying fun as well as effective.

…you become part of an international environment where you encounter diverse cultures and languages. Many courses focus on international and

European-based topics and more than half of the programmes are taught in English. You can even carry out part of your studies abroad.

…you live in one of Europe’s liveliest cities, with bars and restaurants in abundance, a wide variety of theatres and cinemas and a different café for every day of the year; Maastricht has it all. And to top it off, you will be within easy reach of cities such as Brussels, Paris and Amsterdam.
